Catapults and Cannons like motor-scooters seem to be only good for two things - to not really work and then to be stolen from in front of your face.

On a related note, i hate how you discover something new and then you discover the resources lie in enemy territory eg - Gunpowder with Saltpeter being everywhere except within your borders - war ensues. In fact i spent 350 years of the game at war with 4 other nations to control salt-peter...

I forgot that you can activate the grid, but come on how anally retentive do you need to be to have the grid on?, though it does help with sea navigation. Btw the third option is simply a magnet for people like me, i wish people wouldn't put them in as options:D

I really like culture flipping it adds another element to the equation, no longer can you just build up your military and lord it over your neighbours and sit complacently until you suck them dry of resources and tech then raze their country to the ground setting an example to those who don't...
