Capital Defensive Bonuses
I've always noticed that the capital always shows a 'city' icon when it is a town, and a 'metropolis' icon when it is a city. My question, though, is whether that has any effect on the defensive bonus of units stationed there. My guess is that when the capital is a town, it gets the defensive bonus of a city, and when it is a city, it gets the bonus of a metropolis. Is this right?

The graphics for the capital is always 1 level higher than actuality. This doesn't improve the defence value of any defenders though.
As far as I know it's just to make the capital stand out a bit more. |

It's treated as what it looks like. A capital at size 7 is a metropolis, and is treated as such for defence bonuses and unit support.

Capital defense
If a capital smaller than size 6 is drawn as a city ( and not a village ) and defends as a city ( not a village ) does this mean that city walls are useless in the capital?

If the capital alsways is drawn as a city or better, then of course it wouldn't show up with the Grat wall
