Does anybody know if we can build canals in Civ 3 for naval units to move from one ocean to another? |

I thought someone said he saw canals in one image. |

There will be a 'Great Canal' wonder. But I think that it can only be build once, at one place on the map. |

Its a shame that the great canal is not a repeatable mini-wonder that transforms one tile each time it is built. That way many canal wonders could be made in key locations or even connected together to form a huge one if the map made it worth the effort. |

I hope they're going to be in.
To be dug by settlers or engineers.
With developping possibilities over the years.And I hope the distance between resp. the atlantic and pacific; and the mediterrenean and the red sea is going to be two tiles. That means you can't "bridge" the distance by building a city in between. Let either the Suez- or the Panama-canal be a wonder, or maybe even the both of them. Unique wonders because they have to be build outside a city. That would mean that you only can build these wonders if you got hold of the respective territory |

Of course the wonder could be used like the Manhaten Project and enables the construction of canals |

Interesting. I'll vote the other way, and say for the sake of gameplay I hope they go with just the one opportunity to build it. If only to emphasize competition and the strategic value of the one canal once it's built. |
