civilization v the complete edition vs brave new world

Your civilization does not require treaties with a neighbor to trade with them and instead, trade caravans or ships can be sent to another city. International trade is another new feature that greatly boosts the economy in the early years, and is a source of mutual beneficial resources for trade partners. This subtle yet drastic change forces players to re-think strategies on how best to deal with neighbors.

Diplomacy is very important as players can find themselves without friends when the AI suddenly decides to ban your luxuries, sending your empire into a foul swoon which spawns barbarian units that wreck havoc on your infrastructure. Player influence on the congress is controlled by delegates, which increase in number based on the size of your empire and how many city-state allies you have. The World Congress is where all the leaders of the world come together and propose global issues, such as banning certain luxuries, enacting trade embargoes on warmongering nations, or even constructing the International Space Station. Although a neat idea, this feature is lacking in variety and depth.Īlso new is the World Congress, which morphs into the United Nations later in the game (there is no longer a United Nations wonder). After reaching that level, the terrain becomes littered with antiquity sites, primed for digging up valuable artifacts the archaeologist can recover. Upon researching archaeology, a completely new feature of the game opens up, with players gaining access to an Indiana Jones-like unit aptly called an archaeologist.

Great works and tourism don't stop with Great People in the game, however.
