Hi there,This is actually a question for the Mac version (I also posted to that board), but I think the answers are probably the same for Mac/PC/Linux. I'm having a bit of a problem figuring out how to end the game via wonder. When I send a wormhole probe into the wormhole, nothing happens. The only thing I can think of is either that I'm not waiting long enough (though I would think 100 years + would do it) - does it have to be a certain year for something to occur? - or that there's some way of entering the wormhole other than by just moving the probe over the thing (like launching it through from the ground, but then that would raise the problem of how to get the probe into position so that can't be it). The two games I've played so far have been on relatively easy settings, so I haven't gotten that far in, time-wise. The other thing I can't figure out how to do is Capitalization. Sometimes when I take over an enemy city, it's already capitalized, but I haven't been able to find a command to do it in my own cities. So what am I missing? I'm sure it's very simple, but it's not in the manual.

On the capitalization Q, once you get the science advance that allows merchants (forget what that is), you can then click the build button, and select capitalization from the city improvements list (click the middle filter icon above the possible build item list - don't know how to otherwise refer to it). |

You cannot do capitalization in a queue, so you should have the build tab in the "single build" mode. You can also do capitalization from the cities list screen.As for your ALP question: once you move the probe into the wormhole you can start building the various ALP parts. Unless you selected the bloodlust option at the start of the game. In that case you can only win by conquering the world. | |
