Statue of Liberty, and it's spelled "Statue of Victory", IIRC

I have to say, Colossus and Pyraminds are very nice, but every time I play a game on a high difficulty (I don't do multi, haven't stopped sucking yet), I find that It's Terra Cotta I'm relying on the most. IMO Terra Cotta is the reason I am alive at all to take advantage of any resource bonuses

I am rather partial to the Terra Cotta Army, but as I have been playing CTW often recently, I have been learning to do without them. WoW are rare in those games.

I thought this was a no-brainer: Colossus. Oh well.

CTW maps wonders definitely are at a premium. You pretty much take whatever you can get. And if you have 'em, change your build order to get a quick Civic 4.

Terra Cotta believers: I also felt that way for a long time...but as I've learned to do more with less I've discovered you can hold a City down if you have to against a concerted Medieval/early Gunpowder attack with a Tower, 3 Archers, and a Catapult or two...kinda makes you appreciate this one a bit less.

The Colossus is easily the best Wonder for 15 civs. Debatable with Bantu...I prefer to steal it from the other guy with them.

The Statue IS evil, but it's just not quite in the league of the Colossus or Versailles, which produce effects you just can't get with resource investment.
