Fallout on mountain

[CivFart]

How do I get rid of fallout stuck on mountain tops, my workers can't get there

I want to get rid of it for the pleasure of my eye, it's eye straining to see the blinking yellowish poison flashing around.

Refer to it as Yucca Mountain and move on.

Can I mount a worker on a helicopter gunship and transport him up there?

 

[Eagle Pursuit]

You could do it with Carthage after your first GG, but you'd go through a lot of workers doing it.

I know the OP said he only wanted to remove it for the looks, but what if it was a desert mountain and Petra was in the city? I think that would annoy me to no end if I wasn't Carthage.

Actually, no. It can't be improved, so (I'm pretty sure) fallout would effectively do nothing in this case.

So fallout only affect improvements and not the base tile yield? I honestly don't know because I haven't been on the recieving end of a nuke yet in Civ 5.

I don't want to hi-jack the OP's thread, but i have a question of my own regarding nukes. Despite owning Civ 5 since release day, i am only for the first time in the information era, i am currently England on a marathon game. I conquered all of my continent and Mongolia has conquered all of his plus an island containing Songhai and Japan.(I liberated Japan) Both my self and Mongolia have recently researched nukes, my question is, is Genghis likely to build and use these against me? I'm only playing on prince as I've not long owned the G&K add-on.

I would like to wipe him out without using any nukes if possible, but i am unsure if i should build any since he has the capability to build his own.

s Genghis likely to build and use these against me?

If you go to the Strategy and Tips forum, there is a stickied thread titled "Diplomacy by Numbers" (or something similar). It contains a spreadsheet that details the likelihood, on a 1-10 scale, for each AI civ to do certain things. There are categories for nuke construction and nuke use; check to see what Mongolia's numbers are there, along with any others you are curious about.

Hmm, I'm in the same boat. Somehow, in 570 hours of play (hundreds of which have been on Immortal/Deity), I've never been nuked.

But, I looked it up, and you're right; fallout results in -3 hammers, -3 food, and -3 gold. So I would be quite annoyed if someone nuked my Petra city and I couldn't clean-up fallout on a mountain.
