Game Mechanics Changes: Vanilla to Conquests
The manual seems to be woefully inadequate at explaining what has changed between vanilla Civ and Conquests, especially the little things. For example: the new Great Wall and Wonder Rushing rules aren't documented.
Could a comprehensive list be compiled? I don't know either version well enough to notice notice most of the changes until it's too late. Forgive me if such a list already exists.

IIRC there was a thread here that listed most all of it. Make the date back a few months and scan them.

I have seen the list and there is many things that aren't in that thread, plus however much else that people haven't found. According to Jeff of Atari, over 250+ changes to the Epic Game have been made, but they haven't released that list to the general public.

Yes, a comprehensive list would be nice, but its going to take someone with sizable motivation and time.
I envy that man. :P

Since initial fielding, five variations of the missile and two variations of the TOW subsystem have been fielded. In FY92 the direct-attack TOW 2A missile was replaced as the standard production missile by the top-attack TOW 2B missile - both are in use.

"Direct-attack" indicates a flat trajectory (i.e., hit the target on the front or side). "Top-attack" implies that near the target it goes high and hits the top of the target, where there is less armor.

From what I have read, the comprehensive list already exists; it is only a matter of convincing them to release it.

I was mucking about the editor and noticed that Wealth now gives one gold for every four shields instead of every eight. I wonder if now it makes more sense to build Wealth, instead of units to disband in other cities.
