We are preparing to try this expansion, and I'm reading up on the rules. I'm confused about the Urbanism advance. What is a "wilderness city" mentioned in there. The term is used (twice) in the rules (2.07 2006-11-06) when talking about Urbanism. But nowhere is it explained. Is it just any city? Or is it a city built in an area without any city site, requiring 12 tokens? Or is it yet something else?

A wilderness city is any city built in a space that does NOT contain a white or black square. Such cities normally require 12 tokens instead of the normal 6 to build a city.

It's a good point if there is no mention of it. Typically, all players here have played the board game and know the term.

I've played both original game and Advanced Civilization many times, but the term was still new to me. I don't remember having seen the term in the original rules either. (But it was a while since I read them now.)

Anyway, thanks for the reply!

Wilderness city is a nickname for "cities not on city cites", the equivalent Swedish nickname is "tolvstad" (at least where I play).

For the next version of the rules I'll replace "when building a wilderness city" with "when building a city in an area without a city site"

Yes, "tolvstad" is what we call them too. :-)

We never heard the term 'wilderness city' either, but it was clear to us what that is.

Maybe an explaination could be added in some futurue update of the rules.
