Architect of Wonders
"The empire is built on marble, and she will be immortalized through the ages."
This mod adds a set of Build Wonders decisions & great projescts that allow players to freely choose locations to build their favorite special buildings.
This MOD has been fully adapted to the Great Projects system from v1.18.
The currently process for constructing a wonder is: 1. Use the "Construct Wonder" decision to select the wonder/mine; 2. Select the target location and start the Great Project; 3. Invest in and complete the Great Project to acquire the special building.
For the Chinese Emperor:
– Adding new Duchy Building The Imperial City, which can be constructed in places through Great Projects. (If starting after 1066, Kaifeng comes with the Imperial City building by default)
– Adding new Great Building The Forbidden City, which can be further upgraded through Great Projects. (The Forbidden City can be constructed in the capital using the vanilla Strength Capital Great Project)
