Civilization V: Brave New World Guide Changes in Brave New World

The World's Always Changing

It's best to start with concepts that are familiar, so this section goes over a variety of changes from Gods and Kings (or even earlier, if you're coming to the game fresh from the original release).

This section analyzes changes to the core rules and concepts of the game and then goes into specific nations, units, buildings, and technology. All of this is important because it affects your games in both overt and subtle ways.

The costs shown throughout this guide for units, technologies, and buildings reflect games on standard speed and a small map. Slow games and larger maps increase production and research time for all items.
