Glory to Rome
Can the Statue's 3 VP count before the Statue is complete if you own a Gate?
The designer answered this directly, applying the 'This is Glory To Rome!' principle, and it departs from the rulebook's Statue wording.

Yes. A Statue is a Marble building, so a completed Gate lets an unfinished Statue provide its function, including the 3 VP at game end. The rulebook's Statue text ties the bonus to completion; the designer's reading clarifies that the Gate counts.
