	are multiple golden eras possible? Get a bigger avatar today!

i was playing Indian and i unexpectedly got my golden age early when i built the colossus...later, i built bunch of war elephants but did not go into war..should i save these elephants for later when i go into war since winning a battle with UU triggers golden age? or would i not get a 2nd golden age?

Yes -- they are possible. There is a rare bug that allows it. According to my poll over at Civfanatics, about 15% of people experience it at one time or another.

I've experienced it 4 or 5 times.

It can happen but it's not supposed too. I got 2 once, I dont know how I did it, I haven't been able to do again....

I would like to see 2 golden ages as the standard. Once from the UU victory and once from building the appropriate wonder. Some UU come far to early in the game and you are stuck with a golden age to early. With 2 it would be easier to space them out more to the players liking.

Having a GA by wonder and by UU would be a HUGE (read unbalancing) bennie for the Americans... At least with my play style.


I'd get the wonder GA towards the end of the ancient age with pyramids and colossus. This always fuels an extremely rapid expansion for me.

the next GA wouldn't occur until the civ is a fully develped super power. At which point an extra commerce and shield in every square would just be a monumental flow o' cash and tanks....and pollution

Frankly, I don't see how a victory by a military unit would trigger an era of prosperity. The first time I played the Babs I wasn't paying attention and got my GA with only three cities on the map. I don't build bowmen anymore.

I've never had more than one, and I've played a lot. Having two would probaby be unbalancing. Let's see... ok, Egypt. Late ancient ear/early middle ages golden age w/war chariot (all ya gotta do is hold a couple in reserve to hit that leftover AI warrior that's bound to show up), allowing you to nab the key Middle Ages wonders (including the Sistine Chapel), and then a middle-industrial age GA once Hoover is complete (I think that works... Sistine = religious, Hoover = industrious). Now that would be insane.

	I've never experienced two... Support Apolyton or Terrorists Win

though I have edited the golden ages to last for 30 turns instead... It's always fun to get more.
