Civilization 5 World Wonders: Statue of Zeus
Building Strategies and Wonder Information
World Wonder: Statue of Zeus
Tech Required: Bronze Working
Production Cost: 185
What it Does: Must Adopt Honor. Gives Units +15% Combat Strength when attacking Cities, along with a flat +1 Culture.
Strategies
The +15% Combat Strength is huge when stacked with the Great General and flanking bonuses you'll get with Honor Policies. If you will be waging war, it is absolutely worth your time building this to offset units' relative weakness when compared to City Combat Strength earlier in the game. If you're going to be a Warmonger, there's no way you should pass on it.
If you Adopt Honor, definitely try to build this Wonder to help you throughout the entire game - this statue will even help Units like Bombers and Naval Units deliver their payloads late-game to help you win a Domination Victory.
The Statue of Zeus originally came with the Wonders of the Ancient World DLC, but is included with Brave New World because it becomes the bonus building for Adopting Honor.
