A Nations Guide to Wonders
http://www.cybernations.net/about_topics.asp#Wonders This link
will take you to the Wonders
Information Index it has basic info on every type of wonder
available. However it does not give you any
specific order to purchase these wonders. I have a preferred
list of wonders and the order I would/plan
to buy them. The order you buy them depends upon your economic
(bills and income) and military
goals. Also, you may only purchase one of each wonder and only
make one purchase every 30 days; and
every wonder costs $5k/daily for upkeep.
I would suggest buying either a Stock Market ($30,000,000 - The
stock market provides a boost to your
economy. Increases citizen income +$10.00) or Social Security
System ($40,000,000- The social security
system provides benefits to aging members of your nation. Allows
you to raise taxes above 28% up to
30% without additional happiness penalties) first. You can
calculate this either with CN Extend or on Day
20 after collection and before you swap back to Labor Camps. To
find this out take your citizens gross
daily income and first multiply by 28%, then multiply the
product by 20 to find your sled income; write
the number down somewhere. Next, take the gross citizen income
and multiply by 30% and multiply
that product by 20. Find the difference between the two and
write it down, this was for the SSS. Next,
take the citizens gross income and add $10 to it, now multiply
by 28% and multiply the product by 20;
write the number down and compare it with your final product
from the Social Security System.Whichever gives you more income is
the one you need to buy first.
For your second wonder you may either buy the SSS or take on the
National Research Lab ($35,000,000 -
The national research lab is a central location for scientists
seeking cures for common diseases among
your population. Increases population +5% and decreases
technology costs -3%). I have this wonder and
am very pleased with it. If you sell or buy technology a lot
(use all of your current slots most of the time)
then I suggest getting the Disaster Relief Agency as your second
wonder ($40,000,000 - The disaster
relief agency helps restore your nation and its people after
emergency situations. Increases population
+3% and opens one extra foreign aid slot).
Third, Fourth, and Fifth wonders could consist of any of the
four previously discussed or something like aGreat Monument
($35,000,000 - The great monument is a testament to your great
leadership. Increases
happiness +4 and your population will always be happy with your
government choice, if your people are
not currently happy with your choice happiness will be increased
an additional +1 point) which is useful
for keeping Democracy or Monarchy for gov, a Great Temple
($35,000,000 - The great temple is a
dedicated shrine to your national religion. Increases happiness
+5 and your population will always be
happy with your religion choice) or Internet ($35,000,000 -
Provides Internet infrastructure throughout
your nation. Increases population happiness +5). The Great
University may be an excellent choice if you
sell a ton of tech or if you buy it like crazy, ($35,000,000 -
The great university is a central location for
scholars within your nation. Decreases technology costs -10% and
increases population happiness +.2%
(+2 for every 1000) of your nation's technology level over 200
up to 3,000 tech). I plan to purchase this
wonder myself very soon.
For either the Fifth of Sixth wonder I would recommend a
Manhattan Project if you dont already have
one. Here are this wonders stats: $100,000,000 - The Manhattan
Project allows nations below 5% of the
top nations in the game to develop nuclear weapons. The
Manhattan Project cannot be destroyed once
it is created. The wonder requires 3,000 infrastructure, 300
technology, and a uranium resource. The
uranium resource and 300 tech is only required for purchasing
the wonder and nukes, you need not
keep the extra tech after the purchases if you so choose. Like
me, if youd like to continue selling tech or
just stay at a low level for the time being. Nuclear weapons
require 75 tech to purchase; but are not

required to keep during peace time. It is a nice thing to have
in this changing world, as it seems war
comes more easily now.
For your Sixth or Seventh wonder (or maybe a sooner wonder
depending on your bills) I highly
recommend the Interstate System because it decreases
infrastructure purchase and upkeep costs by 8%.
And if you keep nukes all the time or have a large amount of
infrastructure you understand that every
little bit helps.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you are military oriented, I still suggest the same wonders
for 1-3. But for your Fourth and Fifth
wonders you should begin to look at the Pentagon ($30,000,000 -
The Pentagon serves as your nation's
headquarters for military operations. Increases attacking and
defending ground battle strength +20%)
and Foreign Air Force Base ($35,000,000 - Raises the aircraft
limit +20 for your nation and increases the
number of aircraft that can be sent in each attack mission +20).
These will surely help you in times of
war. You may also choose the Anti-Air Defense Network if youd
like: $50,000,000 - Reduces odds of
incoming aircraft attacks against your nation -25%. Reduces
aircraft attack damages against your nation
-10%.
For your Sixth and Seventh wonders you should get the Manhattan
Project and Interstate System. And
for a few wonders after build up some economic wonders and
improvements to help offset the bills and
youll probably want to start buying tech if you havent already.
Then I would suggest a Hidden Nuclear
Missile Silo ($30,000,000 - Allows your nation to develop +5
nuclear missiles that cannot be destroyed in
spy attacks. (Nations must first be nuclear capable in order to
purchase nukes) and a Strategic Defense
Initiative ($75,000,000 - Reduces odds of a successful nuclear
attack against your nation by 60%. The SDI
wonder also requires 3 satellites and 3 missile defenses and
those satellites and missile defenses cannot
be deleted once the wonder is developed) when your nation gets
big enough to support the extra
improvements needed.
And later on in your nations life when you build up nice and
big, buy the Weapons Research Complex
($150,000,000 - Increases the technology bonus to damage from
0.01% to 0.02% per technology level,
Increases the number of nukes that can be purchased per day to
2, hurts environment by +1, Increases
the purchase costs of all military by 0.01% per technology
level. Requires 8,500 infrastructure, 2,000
technology, National Research Lab, Pentagon Wonder).
