I guess you should choose the option "Prevent City Razing" in the scenario options before starting to play.

I'll check the list of city names. In fact, it's needed a whole revision of this scenario.

Sofia is also a good choice, but Ottomans tend to get obsessed with taking this city, and it will be highly influenced by their culture. Better to be founded later, though you might be lucky and the Greeks could save you the job. My choices for first four cities would be: Moscow, Kiev...

I have tried the Mali UHV a few times, and there are a few approaches you may use. I'll try to summarize them: -The Roman Gambit. The idea is to pick Rome, conquer Carthage, and expand to the south, so when Mali appears, yo may pick a couple of cities and a few valious Pretorians you may use to...

Yeah, Ampurias will be as right as Rosas. Choose whatever you like better. :) And you're telling me that Inverness, e.g. was a metropolis, no? I think Ampurias and Rosas are important enough to be represented in the scenario. Maybe nowadays are backwater cities, but that doesn't justify them...

I meant Rhode, not Rhodes, sorry. Modernly it's called Rosas, Roses in English. Here you can find out more about the town I mean. Actually, it was founded by colonists from the Rhodes in southern Turkey. I'm spanish, I know the history of my country ;). About sk8er AG's question, my choices...

I'll even go further, for example encouraging Greece to found Rhodes, which under Roman dominion would turn to be Tarraco, and under Spanish rule, Tarragona. It should be one tile to the north of Spanish Barcelona. I know that Tarraco and Rhodes aren't the same, but the distance between them is...

Maybe, but I guess you'll need TONS of money to do this, so you'll better have a good profit, or it will be impossible. Also, you will need to dedicate a significant percentage of your earnings to espionage, so forget the tech race. On the good point, you can use your advantage in espionage to...

Something you can do is to build a city in north America, more or less in Texas, and give it to the aztecs. They usually accept. Later on, you can conquer all the rest of their cities, and Americans will have to worry about them. Or conquer New Orleans to the French, and give it to the Aztecs...

Well, I haven't played RFC on BtS, to tell the truth (well, I think I started a game, and never finished it). I usually played on the middle difficulty level (Monarch, I guess it's called). Maybe my tips are a bittle rusty. I used to play a lot with Egypt in old versions, but there's a lot of...

First of all, you shouldn`t panic with Egypt. I have won by score with them a few times, and my suggestions for surviving with Egypt are these: 1.- Don`t build your first city where you're born. A step to the west is usually enough to make some free space to found another one in the Red Sea...

Well, it's been a while since I play Germany, but my first victory in RFC was with them! I had several good games with them, though I've never been able to get their UHV. The key to play Germany is to be agressive, but in a selective way. Getting those austrian cities is a high priority...

Though I don't know you can copy-paste it, you can just check it. Look at the button at the top left, showing a book and a pencil. There it is. Or, if you ended the game, you can just watch the replay. The event, if happened, should appear on it.

You may had hit the nail, MrCynical. I don't see nothing strange on the buidings, but indeed an event may be the cause. You can make sure by taking a look at the event log. And, if you can post it here, even better.

In some past games in Warlords I focused a lot on this, making some conclusions: 1.- If you can found a religion, do it. If you need to sacrifice something to do it, don't. Why? Because you can always conquer the holy city. However, a holy city is always a good thing to have. Think on this...
