Description
The Karnak Temple Complex of Thebes (Modern day Luxor) is one which provides a cross-section of the beliefs associated with the Kemetic religion of Ancient Egyptian society. It is a sacred site on which temples and shrines have been constructed from the reign of Senusret I in 1941 BCE to Ptolemaic Egypt in as late as 30 BCE. It is widely known for the Avenue of Sphinxes, a row leading up to the entrance to Karnak which features approximately two thousand Sphinxes lining the path. Ingame, Karnak provides a free temple in the city in which it is built, and +2 faith from Flood plains.

It's not something that will win the game for everyone but it WILL guarantee you the early game. Paired with desert folklore, this can make any civ with a desert start into faith powerhouse big enough to make the celts shake in their boots and it only gets better when the Petra is thrown in later. Really fun to play with as a civ with a desert start bias but no where near balanced.

Possessing this wonder should have a 1% chance of aliens showing up to seize the city.

(10 points if you get the reference.)

I really like this one. Fits perfectly with Petra!

True enough. I guess since it is so early you either have to get really lucky with your capital or rush your second city to be able to make full use of it. What bothers me is if you did spawn in a desert near say 4 flood plains, you're just handed the option to build something twice as good as stongehenge instead. I haven't played with it though, so maybe I'm overvaluing it. It is kind of hard to compare such a situational wonder to the official ones, none of which I think are particularly situational other than The Mausoleum of Halicarnassus.
