Speaking of Quick Topics, if you have made one could you send me the link (even if you've already done so), preferably with an easy to find title (I get SO MANY PM with all the games I'm playing/modding. I wouldn't be surprised if my inbox is the most active on the forum (well... maybe not quite...))

...spin-offs are still better for all of the previously cited reasons.
But not strictly better, because the spinoff can have a different cost than the expansion.

Update whenever you pick a leader or forward your hand on. Only forward the hand on when the person below you has picked their next leader! When you have received your 4th leader, please select your first leader play.

Kuildeous: Hand 2 received. 2 picked.
eHalcyon - Hand 3 received. 3 picked.
Galzria - Hand 4 received. 4 picked. First leader not played.
mith - Hand 3 received. 3 picked.
Qvist - Hand 1 received. 0 picked.
Davio - Hand 1 received. 0 picked.
Insomniac - Hand 1 received. 1 picked.

Basic summaries of major changes as I remember them (I own the sets but haven't played with them before):

Leaders
- everyone starts with $6 now!
- draft 4 leaders at the start of the game, passing to the right (no choice for the fourth one)
- at the start of each age, you may recruit a leader by paying its cost (always in coins)

Cities
- City cards (black) get added to each age!
- City cards are randomly chosen from a set, much like Guilds
- City cards usually have a coin cost and tend to be extra powerful (e.g. a 5 shield card in Age III)
- There are now cards that will attack others by making them lose money or incur debt tokens (worth negative VP)
- There are cards that grant you Diplomacy, which exempts you from military conflict (your neighbours fight each other instead)
- There are Mask icons that let you copy a scientific symbol from a neighbour

Fun experiment: Don't shuffle the age cards, just shove them in as they are. Observe the resulting chaos.

I have three rounds to collect results on this, as well.

Faust has also been incredibly stubborn this game. In other news, it's hot in the summer, and water falls from the sky when it rains.

Correct. You'll draft 4, and play 3.

Unless you are Rome.  Also Catan, I think.  You can choose to recruit one at the start of each Age.

Yeah. So the normal flow of game goes:

Choose wonder side
Age I Card 1
...
Age I Card 6
Resolve conflict
Age II Card 1
...
Age II Card 6
Resolve conflict
Age III Card 1
...
Age III Card 6
Resolve conflict
Final scoring.

Now with Leaders and cities it's:
Choose wonder side
Leader Draft
Age I Leader
Age I Card 1
...
Age I Card 7
Resolve conflict
Age II Leader
Age II Card 1
...
Age II Card 7
Resolve conflict
Age III Leader
Age III Card 1
...
Age III Card 7
Resolve conflict
Final scoring.

The notable additions being leaders once per age and an extra card play once per age.

I have to say, having the full list of cards available is really nice.  I played a couple of IRL games of 7 Wonders today and I royally screwed up the second one.  I was building all Science and I got a hand where the best choices were Quarry or Sawmill.  I couldn't remember what things cost and chose the wood... then the next hand had a Library.  I decided I needed it and it cost me $4.  I also made a second major mistake when I thought I couldn't afford an Academy.  I saw "Compass, chains from School" so I only checked the Compass cards I already had.  So terrible!  Those two mistakes cost me the game.
