Hi there! I am not sure whether this a bug or I just misunderstood sth. Maybe one of you can help me with one of these WW1 like situation: Turkey declares war on me The vikings with whom I have a def pact declare war on Turkey Russia with whom the Turks have a def pact declare war on the...

You are playing France and conquered Germany? How dare you! However, what happens, when you take Brest back? Still some resistance agains you? What is the .ini-file I have to edit?

Well, I have the strong impression that AI re-takeover also restores buildings but I cannot prove it. However, they never face resistance nor cultural losses. But when I regain my formerly lost cities it's the same as if I never had owned them: riots, less buildings and no culturual influence...

Thank you! This already helps me. What I didnot understand: What triggers the destruction? Is it the bombardement? Or just the act of conquering? And when will the odds be calculated? Sometimes when I load a game and conquer the city again it's still the same buildings that survive. BTW: What...

Hmmm, strange... I remember I once owned or even build the Church in Rome. It was the fundament of Rome being the financial capital.

Hey there! I am playing as GER and recently swallowed Rome. I saved a Great Prophet all the time but now he can't establish the Church of the Nativity, although he's on the Rome tile. I already suspected this behaviour beacuse the Great Person seemed to an islamic one only for the Islam sign is...

Causing 8 unhappy citizen in many cities at the same time has not much effect after all? What a pitty. But thanks for the notice. How long would it take for a civ to collapse once they entered an unstable phase?

Howdy! I've been searching over and over not finding sufficient answer: Is it possible to bring down a nation with spies (and supporting action)? I'd like to avoid declaring war as it has bad reputational effects. It's rather convenient to destabilize another nation such that it collapses and...
