HELP- Need List of Cultural Monuments for Tgas

[Quark]

Ok, so I can add the Hagia Sophia and Great Aqueduct to Constantinople and use the attached tga's. It all works fine, however I am not happy with the building view of the church as it needs to be a bit smaller and have a transparent black background like for the aqueduct. The aqueduct is an unpacked version of the standard file, which I have just renamed so as to only be available in Constantinople.

Anyone out there good with photoshop etc so could provide better images for these. Will swap all the text files to get the wonders up and running if your interested.

Well Echad just volunteered to do the tgas and I will do all the text, files and events, so what I want is suggestions for one or two buildings which can be 'wonders' for each Faction. I will post the buildings for the early campaign that I believe should be in, in this post. I know that there are lists scattered about in threads, but lets put it all here, so we can actually get something done. Remember there is a maximum of 128 building trees in the EDB so you may not get all of these.

Slave: Jerusalem - Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem (at start); Mecca - Kabba (at start)
Papal Staes:
Byzantium: Constantinople - Aqueduct, Hagia Sophia (both at start)
France: Paris - Notre Dame, (started 1163)
England: Canterbury Cathedral
Scotland:
Moors: Cordaba Mosque/Cathedral (Mosque at start, have player pay to convert to level 2 = cathedral tga), Granada - Alhambra (1238)
Eygpt:
Turks:
Venice: Venice- St Marks Basilica (at start)
HRE: Nuremburg - Hospital of the Holy Spirit (1332)
Kiev-Rus: Kiev Golden Gate (at start)
Novgorod: Saint Sophia Cathedral
Templars: Krak du Chevalier? (The castle already is in the game, so not sure about making it a monument)

Pyramids, Tower of London, University of Bologna come to mind...

I thought about the pyramids, and giving a law bonus, but would like to get add medieval wonders, rather than ancient. If no such exist for a faction then may have to resort to such, but lets see what gets suggested.

Hey all. 1st post, but longtime lurker. This topic got the brain going a bit.

I would suggest that an ancient wonder that is still kicking around in the medieval age would still be a wonder for that faction.

The way I am thinking is that an ancient wonder would definitely inspire a people .

Also - several of the ancient wonders were destroyed in the medieval era. The Mausoleum at Halicarnassus and the Library in Alexandria come to mind. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven_W..._Ancient_World

Both the two that I mentioned were felled by earthquakes - and I suppose that could be a random scripted event to lose the benefits of those two.

Well, for the Egyptian faction, there are obvious sites besides the Pyramids - Egypt does control (or comes to control) Mecca and Jerusalem, after all.

So, the Kaaba in Mecca and the Al Aqsa Mosque/Western Wall/Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem?

[delra]

So I suppose Stonehenge is out of the question.

Cordoba had a wonderful Umayyad mosque, this would fit for Moors. Could be a cathedral under christian rule.\

Venice could have Doge's Palace and St. Mark's Basilica.

Kiev had their Golden Gate.

[Hmz..]

The Tower of Pisa ?
Sistine Chapel ?
Mont Saint Michel ?
Catacombs in paris ?
The City of Venice itself ?
Krak du Chavelier ?

[Quark]

Hmz..
Sistine Chapel - a bit to late - 1453?
Mont Saint Michel - Not sure wether to add this to the traits list as a pilgrimage site, or as a monument, but agree it should be in the game.

Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem etc is a good idea, whould have to think of the bonuses as Jerusalem gets captured alot and would hate to figure out the swopping of tgas. What I could do is open up the 'Pilgrimage to Jerusalem' trait to islamic factions as it was an important site to them as well.

At present (in my traits) you can do a holy journey to;
Islamic - Medina, Mecca
Catholic - Santiago, Jerusalem, Rome
Orthodox - Constantinople

Will all wonders bonuses be only activating the holy journey trait? Could you give them something more powerful?

Important cathedrals for Castile-Leon:

Burgos - 1221
Santiago - 1075 (but in SS is in Oporto province - Portugal)
Leon - 1205

Aragon (Barcelona):

Santa María del Mar - 1329
Santa Eulalia - 1298

[Hmz..]

Westminster Abbey
the Hospital of the Holy Spirit (Nuremburg)
Alcázar (toledo)
Piazza San Marco (venice)
Catedral de Santa Eulàlia (barcelona)
Mezquita (Cordoba)

Don't think that medieval english held stonehenge in quite the same reverence as is done now. (and there's one of every battlefield anyway or so it seems)

maybe walsingham?

pilgrimage site for many english monarchs

I do not want to confuse;

• Traits such as 'Pilgrimage to Jerusalem' which add to piety and
• Wonders which are buildings in the EDB which add to Law, Growth, Happiness etc

Some buildings, such as 'Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela' I have added as pilgrim options to the traits file, but would not add them to the city of Oporto as a) not a wonder, b) nothing to do with the city.

Great, thanks Quark

Don't forget the Dome of the Rock.

[DrunkNIrishMan]

England- Canterbury Cathedral
Papal States- St. Peter's Basilica

[Quark]

St. Peter's Basilica - 1506

But Canterbury Cathedral is an idea as around at the start, pilgrimage site, and of course Thomas Becket.

Ah, my bad, apparently there was an older basilica on the same site that fit into our timeline.

This one seems interesting:

Genoa could have Balistai company, the ones who produced their crossbows. Could give exp bonus for xbows trained there.

Sadly I can't find more info on it, especially the dates.


They also had a very old port there, begs for +trade bonus and +exp bonus for ships.
