Can't destroy Civilizations

[Lacerda]

Greetings my friends.

I was wondering, I have two catapults, a bunch of archers and horseman assaulting Rome, the capital, and when it reaches, kinda like 5% of it's health, doesn't go down anymore.

Talking with Ceasar I can't even make him give up or anything.

So, how can I utterly destroy one civilization?

Keep attacking it until it falls. Use the horsemen to attack to capture it.

What he said^^. I have noticed myself that no matter how much you range attack a city it wont lose all of its health, you need some kind of melee units to actually capture the city. Also if you are in the war because someone else asked you to be you might have to wait a few turns before you can even negotiate peace, at least I think it works that way, not positive on that yet.

You can't capture with ranged units, that might be a problem.

As to leaders refusing to give anything for peace, the diplomacy is absolutely schizophrenic, no help there.

Yea, you need to get some ground pounders to finish the deal.

Thanks mates!

Yes, it seems with ranged units it takes longer than with melee ones.

Cheers.

Next time, try crossbows. They do decent damage.
