Can we FINALLY build cities on mountains? Also, other Civ4 questions

[Agraza]

I'm having trouble locating where the developers specify exactly what dimensions mountains are meant to represent. Care to help me out?

Interesting ideas about the mountains and all. Personally I think that being unable to settle on mountains works, though I would like to be able to build a road through one (it would just take a long time or a lot of workers)

As for the city limit. I think that this is ridiculous. 1000 cities would bankrupt you in no time flat, crash your machine and . . . could they even fit with the current 2 space city spacing ?

If someone already said this i am sorry but.....

Did anyone point the Original Poster to the Demo so that they could do their own research?

Well, I can't speak for the developers. But I'm going to go out on a limb and make a crazy speculation- that they meant the terrain in Civ 4 to reflect the real world.

And in the real world is littered with mountains that are completely unsuitable for building cities on, building roads over, and for troops to pass over.
