Chinese and Japanese Nations concern about the Forbidden City

[RushSkies]

Since Forbidden City states that it will act as a Second TC why not also give it features similar to the original TC such:

• road network bonus
• alliance troop spawn
• army troop spawn (Chinese)
• shooting arrows (Japanese)

 

[DanQ]

So long as such bonuses are a fraction of that of the original Town Center, I'd have no issues with that: otherwise, this Wonder would be so much more powerful than anything comparable in its Age that there would be insufficient reason to consider building any other. Whatever those bonuses are, they should be specifically itemized (with an 'at-glance' comparison of the Town Center that it would supplement).

 

[Hyperion]

I already feel that the Chinese and Japanese nations and their wonders are a bit too powerful, compared to other nations (such as the Germans).

Some of the wonders need balancing too... (Such as the almost useless Hanging Gardens)

 

[DanQ]

As an aside to part of what you have said, I disagree that the Hanging Gardens are "almost useless". If you have your fruit trees and gold mines placed within its radius of influence, it will increase their output upon collecting and increases the frequency upon which they can be gathered from. I haven't made note of numbers for comparison, but I believe it's akin to a Gathering Blessing. (Too bad the HG description does not presently specify the increase factor.)
