Moon = lower cost, better benefit, shorter term





My personal choice would be mars wonders because of the long-term benefit.

Whoops My mistake! Man do I feel red!

Can admin please move to gameplay discussions?

[Allan a Dale]

Moved to gameplay discussion.

[iKrolm]

The oldest nations are jsut barely past 1,200 days. Shorter benefits seem like a better idea to me, though I'll be running the math when the prices are finally announced.

[lonewolfe2015]

Well, admin closed the last topic regarding this because they are not finalized. He's just putting them in now as placeholders I suppose and the testing will have to begin now. He will definitely be modifying things as he sees fit and it's just too early to make a choice on the wonders when they aren't set in stone yet.

[Drai]

Vote for both

I'd go for Mars though.

I giggled when I bought the space program, feeling it was kinda useless at the time. Now I'm starting to think otherwise...

Oh, and short term probably. 1200 days is a really long time.

I want basalt, so Mars.

And this is why I wanted Mars the second I read the basalt resource.

I'd rather have my warchest then wonders that don't pay themselves off. Unless of course they roll out at much lower costs than they were originally said to, in that case, I would go with Mars.

[Duncan King]

Neither. They're both really long term and I don't see the point in getting something that won't mature for a year.

The best strategy appears to be to go to the Moon and then go to Mars, but that assumes you're going to be around for 400+ more days longer.

[Big Z]

Heh, if it costs the same as the original figures listed, I don't want it. You can have the wonder.

[Näktergal]

Based on everything I know right now, I'm not buying any of them.

Which is sad, because I've finally reached the point where I have all the other Wonders, so I have nothing left to buy each month, and that feels weird now.

[WolfsPride]

I won't be buying any of them. I don't even like anything that I read about them

[zzzptm]

Costs came down, and Mars is the way this Vidian is gonna go. Just gotta get my Space Program flying, though...
