City Questions

[Civ4Rocks]

I have two questions dealing with cities in Warlords.

1. How can I give a city to a vassal of mine? None of my cities show up on the trade table.

2. How can I raze a city? (after I have already controlled it for a while)

Thanks

You can't raze a city under your control. You can only raze a city when you capture it.

I seldom raze a city because there is no warning about wonders. You have to check the city list in the wonders screen before you take it.

It is kind of annoying to not be able to destroy a city. It should starve to death at least.

It's always irritated me in all the versions of Civ. The work-around used to be (in very old versions of Civ) to starve the city and then produce Settlers (which disbanded the city into a Settlers unit). They should just let us capture a city, VIEW it, and THEN decide to install a governor or raze it. Not only do I want to check for Wonders, but I'd like to see what city buildings would be left in tact if I install governor. If I think my economy can handle one more city but I defeat 2 cities, I'd like to consider many things, including how many buildings I'd get from each one. CApturing a city with a Courthouse, market, bank, granary, and Academy, for example, is very different from capturing once and finding it only has a courthouse or nothing at all!
