This image has been a source of information in many ways (units, wonders... ) to guess what will be the cultures of the game.

We can see a rocket so we could imagine it's part of the game. And so my question here is : How rockets will be involve in the gameplay? And how do you like it?

I suppose it could be a wonder of the contemperary era. But it could be something else.
Any good ideas?

Being the first to lunch a Spaceship would surelly mean an important boost to fame... It could also be related to an artificial wonder, but less likely

Amplitude hasn't release any information regarding space, so there isn't much ground for speculation. However, there are several ways space could impact the game:

1. As aguaacrobata mentioned, fame. There would be a main quest line that mimics the space race, with era stars for first unmanned satellite, first man on the moon, and first permanent manned satellite.

2. Space treated as off-map bonuses. Players could choose from a list of possible space projects (Communications, GPS, SDI, Earth observation, Space observation, space survey). Each project would grant bonuses on completion (Trade, Science, Military strength).

3. Space is treated as a map layer with units (similar to Civ Beyond Earth). Units provide bonuses, but can be shot down by ground or space assets. Advanced technologies would allow dropping weapons from orbit, as well as deployment of special forces from space. Treaties can prohibit certain kinds of space units. As more space units are launched or destroyed, space debris grows and increases the chance of Kessler syndrome.

@aguaacrobata I agree with you.

If ever it was a wonder, that could be interesting if it was built differently (not only with industry) but with a combination of science , money and industry . Or even only science in order to give more interests in building specialized cities.


That way, it could be also interesting to consider project/wonder build on only science, money, stability, military or even food during different eras.

Some projects like...

Early modern Era :

- Declaration of the Rights of the Man and the Citizen (stability)

Industrial Era :

- The first flight (science)

- the development of vaccines (science)

- the Olympic Games (stability)

Contemporary Era :

- Man on the Moon (science+money+industry)

- Trade center (money)

- Human DNA project (science)

- Environmental movement (stability)
