This is something I cannot create with my limited programming knowledge, but it is a great idea. Historically when an advancing army takes a capital from another nation, the rest of the territory falls to the invader. Shouldnt this happen in civ? When an invader takes a capital, the rest of the cities go to the invader with a low experienced most-up-to-date unit guarding it. All units like workers, etc. go to the invader. However, military units go to far away places like jungles, mountains, etc. to start a guerrila campaign. They would have 20 turns to take a city back and start over. They would still be a civ with diplomacy, etc. However, to also continue the historic part, there could be a small national wonder (or improvement?) called the Fleeing Government. This would take 5 turns to complete and the palace would move to a city of your choice. Then your empire is saved. Questions/Comments Much appreciated.
