Hi folks,

I might be a bit late with this but I was taking a closer look at the screenshots (http://www.matrixgames.com/products/415 ... ds-Legends) and there are a few that hint at how 'wonders' work. They appear to be in the research tree and look similar to how Civ wonders are implemented - the first empire that completes the research of the wonder gets the bonuses it offers. Interesting...it's going to mean that the player will have to think a lot more about how they're going to queue their research.

@Webbco
If the wonders work like that, specialization will play much bigger role in research, which is good. I remember this from both Alpha Centauri and GalCiv 2. It was always exciting race against enemy nations when developing/building these "super-projects".
