    1. Copernicus' + Isaac's for the science lover in me. It's also a multiplicative effect, so they are a true dynamic duo.

    2. Shakes + Adam Smith's in Democracy. I love these together, Adam Smith's give you lots of extra cash to rush buy units, or to bribe AI units/cities. By using the majority of the shield output in the Shake's city as support for units you have reassigned to the Shakes' city, you can wage a nice war in Democracy without unhappiness. Once you discover Industrialization, you can rush buy your factories and really go to town! Be careful not to assign too many units to the Shakes' city or a few AI units sitting on a couple of mines can force the disbanding a lot of your units!

    Bach's and Mike's aren't really a combo to me because they are only additive in effect and they're both great by themselves.

    The best part about these Wonders is they don't expire! With the exception of the Colossus, I must be very isolated on the map to build any of the wonders that expire, and then it's usually just Marco Polo's to keep an eye on the natives (and get them to wage war against each other).

      I like michelangelo's and great wall.
      This combination lets you expand like crazy. Your first citizens are happy enough, and the first defender makes you secure enough to go build another city.

        Until someone pointed out the concept of the SSCity, I use to play for the combo of much food with happy people to make a big empire, thus I liked Pyramids with MC. I guess Pyramids and HG would be a good combo too if you're fortunate enough to build both early year wonders.

          My pair were grabbed by the first post:
          Hanging Gardens + Great Wall - I can generally win with just the HG, but (up to meeting spindle world -- URL edited in: http://apolyton.net/forums/Forum3/HT...ml?date=17:43) I have never lost when I get both.
