National Wonders[]

Unlike global wonders, every civilization can build one of each national wonder regardless of whether or not other civilizations have built it already. All Wonders provide +5 Diplomatic Capital, with the exception of the Headquarters (+3 Diplomatic Capital) and the Spy Agency (+2 Diplomatic Capital).

Spy Agency Spy Agency Computing Allows Spy Covert Agents to be recruited. Only wonder in this table that has a cost, 200 Production Production
Culper Lodge Culper Lodge None All Recruiting Spy Covert Agents are automatically Special Agents Rewarded after performing 4 intrigue level operation

Artifact Wonders[]

The Rising Tide expansion adds the Artifact system. Several national wonders may be rewarded to players using this system. These are unlocked by combining Progenitor Artifacts.

Temporal Calculus Temporal Calculus RT only 650 +100% Unit Visibility
Relativistic Data Bank Relativistic Data Bank RT only 400 -1 Intrigue per turn in all Cities

Wonders[4][]

Only one of these can be built in the entire world. If another civilizations has already built one of them, then you can't, and vice versa. Each city can hold an unlimited number of these. Wonders lost in razed cities are lost forever.

The Monomyth virtue, in the knowledge tree, provides +7 Culture Culture for every great Wonder.

All global wonders in Rising Tide by default provide 5 Diplomatic Capital Diplomatic Capital. The Pan-Asian Cooperative gets 6-8 Diplomatic Capital instead, and the first wonder constructed in each city is free.

Projects[]

Projects take up a plot of land. A hex within an extended range of the city building it (6 hexes) is used up. Any improvements or resources on said hex are destroyed to make room for the wonder in question. These are typically related to victory conditions. They have HP and can be destroyed by enemies.

Notes[]

  1. The orignal costs for all artifact wonders was 100 Production Production. This was changed in the October 2015 patch
  2. The pre October 2015 patch version of Machine-Assisted Free Will made all technologies cost 30% less Science Science
  3. The pre October 2015 patch version of Quantum Politics increased virtue acquistion by 100%
  4. In addition to the Rising Tide wonders, the chart reflects wonders post the Winter (March) 2015 patch. While the costs for most wonders were increased, the benefits of most of them were enhanced.
