Looks like a typo, probably for "20".

Well, this game does need a great deal of work.  Item L111 in doc/PROJECTS
(see, there was a reason to number the items :-) ) describes how I thought
some of the CivII facility effects should translate into Xconq terms.
Most of the wonders are pretty hard to do in Xconq, they tend to be
oddball effects that don't translate into any of the tables.  At that
point you might as well go with freeciv...
