All settlers are good for now is establishing new cities (although settlers you capture from enemies wind up turning into two workers)

And once a wonder is built somewhere in the world you must change the production orders of any other city that's building that same wonder. In other words you can't have four cities still building Bach's Cathedral after it's been completed. Some players used to do this so that they'd be ready to switch over to a new wonder once it becomes available.

Firaxis is cracking down on cheating.
-Roman leaders are Trajan or Hadrian
-American leader is Washington

. To switch to Nationalism your culture rating must be quite high. The benefit of Nationalism is that you can mobilize your economy for war or peace.

Nice!
Another way to keep your culture high and cracks down on warmongers

Best screenshots so far. Rivers hinder movement now rather than help? I'll be damned.

Amazing! Did you guys see the governor screen? It looks like the city governor can trully be customized to do some really cool things!

I can see a lot of strategies that revolve around whether I start near a river.
Start near a river: Turtle up
No rivers around: Warmonger

It appears over some of the cities that there's smog building up, specifically, Rome, Elphantine, Ravenna, and Neopolis, does this signify pollution or factories? Pretty cool either way though, the map reflecting the actual situation of a city like that.

The governor screen has all the option one could hope for. You can definitely zoom in and out. Something I was unsure of.

It's not for gunpowder, so much as for saltpeter, a key ingredient in early gunpowder formulas
