Old World - Wonders and Dynasties brings 30 new unique ways to start your games with the inclusion of new leaders and 8 new wonders for you to build a lasting legacy.

Each empire has received various new leaders who bring with them additional starting conditions, family lines, attributes, and events. Play with an iron fist using Sulla's unique dictator attribute, make other monarchs envious with Cufu's ability to endlessly build wonders with reduced costs, or forge a vast empire with Nabucodonosor's rapid expansion. New wonders at your disposal will open up new opportunities in campaigns: get free experts with the Jerwan Aqueduct, become the world's mercantile capital with Al Khazneh, or create an endless army of swordsmen with the Colosseum.
