We used to play a lot of WR friendly games, its great fun, and I think the best games got very close to 20 min in the end. Any opinions on best civ? byz cheap imp vs spain fast build vs vik or pers eco bonus etc

Spain bonus does not effect wonders and you should consider that Persian bonus make Castle/Imperial Age research quicker.

Spanish bonus does effect wonders. Try it, you'll see.

After like 15 games played I think spanish is best. Well from what I saw at least.
My best time is 25'23 with span, 25'50 with byz / sara.

Did not try persian / vik / aztek, though.

Yes, you are correct. Spain bonus affects wonders. However it is only 10%, because they lack the trade crane technology.

I think you can win a wonder race under 22 minuets or even under 20 minuetes, because normal FI time is 21:xx with a reasonable economy, so I think under 22 minuets is possible.

Completing a wonder under 20 min with standard settings on a standard map? You realize you would need a 15 min imp to succeed?

+1 lol

I think some better player than me (not hard) could get some very nice times, like under 25'.

But I highly doubt you can get under 24, a wonder is very slow to be built, what's more when you have few vils on it...
Assuming you're using standard ressources, ofc (2boars + 8sheeps + 4deers + 1spot of berries)

Doing wonder under 25 mins seems very hard... so Im loling at the 22 minutes and less comments... doesnt make sense.

Sorry I never build a wonder and I don't know the quickest possible Imp time. I just guessed from the 11 minuets castle time that Imp is possible in about 18 minuets. Sorry for my silly post .

18 min imp is possible, but you need 1k stone, gold and wood to start building a wonder, and completeing a wonder takes several minutes

i think aztecs are best
