[BTS]Question about the Wonder 3 Gorges Dam

[Kuciwalker]

There can be benefits in building coal plants 1st and then the Gorges Dam later. 1st and most obvious is the earlier power boost to . 2nd there's an event that gives +4 to cities with coal plants. Lastly is to deny the Dam to another player. Later buildings supersede earlier ones, so coal 1st- Dam 2nd will avoid the penalty from coal plants. You just need to determine on a per-game basis if the cost of building lots of coal plants &/or the Dam is worthwhile.

Actually, I think that any coal plants you build after TGD produce no pollution (unless you lose TGD).
