    Default Wonders of the world

    Are we going to have them back in?

    I remember a lot of people complained back in the day about the wonders, that they gave you an unfair advantage if you conquered the province that got them. To be fair, the bonuses were fairly small and it didn't help you much with the campaign overall but I did love the videos that came with them.

    EB had a dozen historical wonders included in the provinces, and those gave proper bonuses, so here I'm wondering if it's a good idea to have them back in again. And lots of them this time.

    Yay or nay for wonders?

    I liked them.

    Pretty much for the same reasons you stated.

    They added a little to colour & immersion, I thought.

    They were great, the bonuses was great too, made Brutii a bit uber compared to other Romans though haha

    Especially Zeus Statue and Hanging Gardens had great bonuses

    The seven great ones from Rome or the 60+ from EB?
    But when thinking about it both would be perfect.

    Have to include them again. Added to immersion, and it was VERY entertaining to fight battles in the shadow of the pyramids/hanging gardens/colossus etc.

    While CA are at it, they should include distant cities on the battlemap too (depending on where the battle takes place on the campaign map).

    I would like to have them back in. I wouldn't even mind if they gave bonuses, as long as they were realistic bonuses like troop morale or something

    I say Yea as well. Besides the Zeus and Rhodes one the other weren't that great(At least compared to those two)...But it would be still cool to have them!

    This is a great idea. I hope it gets back to Rome II.

    Imagine Ishtar gate or I don't know a Stonehenge.

    Wonders hsould make a return. Imagine launching a naval invasion of Rhodes and having your legions battle on sea and foot under the gaze of the Colossus!
