    The others were obviously screenshots from the Mesopotamian Scenario, but this one appears to be the main game.
    You are correct, the Statue of Zeus screenshot was taken from the main game.

    • Merepatra, whilst you are here and, as a fellow Aussie , could you possibly tell me what the current status is in regards to editor flags for buildings! In particular, will it now be possible to give Small Wonders ANY of the flags that are currently available for Great Wonders? After PtW, all flags but 'Double Happiness' and 'Counts as X in Every City' had been made available for Small Wonders-but, for the sake of a Mod I want to do, I'm hoping that these flags have been made available too! If you don't personally have the answer to the question, could you please pass it on to someone at Firaxis? Any help you can give me on this matter would be very, VERY much appreciated !!!

      Yours,
      The_Aussie_Lurker.

        • The designer diary for the Fall of Rome Scenario implies that the 'enslavement' option allows a choice of unit produced depending on the unit doing the enslavement

          eg a military unit attacks and wins a battle, enslaves and produces another military unit for the attacking side - some interesting possibilities

            A designer diary for the Fall of Rome scenario? Where?

            • I have a question about marshes. Can these be changed to another terrain type, like jungle to grassland? If not this is a uneless terrian. Then again, if fish is a bonus resource here, making it into grassland would seem a bit silly.

              • Actually, I hoping that marshes can't be converted into other types; it would seem to be pointless to have another version of the jungle.

                    • oh my oh my, i just saw the stats for the last 3 civs.

                      Mayans:
                      Traits : Agr and Ind
                      UU: Javelin Thrower 2/2/1 cost 30
                      these seem to be gods! it's an expensive bowman (imho not a very useful unit because neither special offense not special defense), but with enslavement ability! which means early free workers if you dare to rush.
                      the traits are probably one of the most powerful combinations (i don't know how good industrial pays out now). i can imagine that this is a killer AI if the computer uses the javelin thrower enough!

                      Portuguese:
                      Traits : Exp and Sea
                      UU: Carrack 2/2/4 cost 40
                      as someone stated earlier: getting ocean travel with astronomy (so 2-6 techs earlier which means 10-30 turns earlier) means domination to communications. good trading and beeing fortunate that the other continent is rich but behind in techs can be great! also the portuguese have a great advantage when picking out the best islands and unpopulated islands for conquest.

                      Sumerians:
                      Traits : Agr and Sci
                      UU: Enkidu Warrior 1/2/1 cost 10
                      now this is basicly a very cheap spearman. great for sending off with your settlers (no need to research bronze working) and great with raging barbarians. traits: one of the strongest and one of the weakest, or differently said: one of the best ancient traits (other one expansionist) and one of the best industrial/modern traits (other one commercial).

                        • Hum, I'm thinking that just surviving as the Netherlands in the WW II scenerio will be even tougher than winning as the American Indians in the Age of Discovery.

                            hi ,

                            , well since the dutch where spread out over the whole world , that seems unlikely , ..... okay agreed they had not a lot of " power " but still , as a player one could maybe concentrate on survival , a couple actions here and there , ....

                            but in a game one does never now , if one can pull a victory with the neutral's in the CIV II WW II scen , well then seems almost anything possible , ......

                            have a nice day

                              Actually, the Native Americans have a pretty good shot in AoD, depending on a few factors...

                              • Panag, I mean having any cities on the WW-II Pacific map at the end of that game if playing the Dutch; not their off-map possesions.
