194. You realize the need for a pitcher of water and a lectern when someone asks you an innocent question like: "What's so different about FfH compared to BtS?"

 

[MagisterCultuum]

Mercurian AV would be rather difficult, since your state religion would be removed from all of your cities at the end of each turn (or is it the beginning? not that when matters all that much).


Edit: I think I vaguely remember noting once that AV is actually removed from the cities of whoever owns the Mercurian Gate instead of from Mercurian cities. If this is (still) the case, then if you don't use Basium's convert city spell to take this city then you could keep AV in all your cities and your permanent ally could not.

This also opens up the strategy of founding/capturing a city to be your capital before using the convert city spell, so that you can then take the city and gift it to someone else. After it removed the AV from all that civ's cities, you (with an open boarder agreement) could move Basium back into the city and take it again. Then gift it to someone else and repeat the process. This could conceivably be used to eradicate the Ashen Veil.


Edit2: I just checked the code, and it is eliminated for the Mercurian civ, not the owner of the Mercurian Gate. That makes more sense, but I could have sworn that it used to be the other way. Oh well, I guess the strategies I just suggested wont work then
