So I've created the Flagpole. This is the Civic Building for the
Nationalist civic.

I kept the idea of the +1
and a small culture bonus (+1
per turn), but instead of a bombardment penalty, I gave it a strength bonus to defending units - "rally round the flag". It's effectively a defense bonus that can't be bombarded away. I took the mechanic from the
Balistraria, which was the only building that was using this mechanic. I'm a big fan of using a mechanic more than once.
The flagpole image has to use a static picture - I couldn't figure out how to put the TeamColor or the flag decal on it. If anyone knows how to do this, please let me know. There is also a text bug with the defensive bonus; it puts the "In this city" right after the first unit type, not at the end (and I don't think it's even necessary in general).
