I've played several games of Civ 5 with the Gods and Kings expansion, and it seems like every game has involved a similar cast of characters (Austria, Sweden, Byzantium) as well as many of the new natural wonders (the ones that give faith).

This was interesting to see the new content, but now it is getting a bit repetitive. Am I correct in thinking that expansion content is more likely to appear than non-expansion content? Is there some way to modify this so that everything is equally likely?

ive had nothing like that happen. – Paralytic Mar 4 at 3:09
@Raven That's certainly possible, I don't have the largest sample size, it just seemed pretty unlikely that I kept seeing the same things each game. – bwarner Mar 4 at 3:53
I haven't done any tests or anything, but it seems to me like I am getting more of the expansion civs in the game as well. I have not noticed a notable pattern in the wonders. Then again, there are A LOT of new civs, so it is pretty likely you would get at least one in a 4-6 player game. – Tater596 Mar 19 at 18:20
