Apparently, they really don't want to "go".

ehm, its -3 per draft right? and 10 turns to disappear?
so 30 units were drafted in 10 turns? bug?

 

[JujuLautre]

I guess the globe theatre was in there

Also, it's 10 turns, but one after another. Draft every turn will give at turn one -3 (10); at turn two -6 (19); at turn three -9 (28)... at turn ten -30 (91), at turn eleven (first anger over) -30 (100), at turn twelve -33 (109) etc etc; basically, there is close to no upper limit

 

[karadoc]

JujuLautre is correct. The city use to have globe theatre; and the draft counter stacks. (notice in the top right it says 291 turns until the unhappiness wears off). The AI gifted me that city when they surrendered, and I thought "great! The christian holy city, with good tile improvements. " ... and it too me several turns to realize that it was permanently crippled by unhappiness.

As a side note; the rules for passing on this kind of unhappiness seem to be a bit inconsistent. I'm pretty sure that if I capture a city militarily then all draft unhappiness and slavery unhappiness is removed from the city; but if the city is gifted to me, then the unhappiness stays.

nice - that is what you call a poison pill.

poor people

 

[choxorn]

The more important question: How the hell did Pyongyang get big enough to draft that many units?

 

[Pangaea]

Although the city will probably be size 1 for all eternity, it does at least provide a lot of gold.

I haven't noticed anything weird about the one called "No WB use, I swear:".

Although I wonder why anyone would ever attempt to build a Wooden Aircraft Carrier.

Getting that much food out of ocean tiles without using Work Boats is pretty impressive.

That reminds me of this one I just got a day or two ago.

Did you see the Drill Three promotion without Drill one or two?

 

[karadoc]

Yes, that's from the event whose text is still on the screen. I've seen that many times.

I remember I was a bit surprised the first time I saw it, but the event does say "Drill III", it doesn't say "Drill I-III"...

I've also seen mods in which they condense lower promotions all together. That is, if you pick up City Raider I and City Raider II and City Raider III, it will only display City Raider III, but you will receive bonuses from all three. I found this feature to be extremely useful when you get units with upwards of 40 or 50 experience.

Early carriers often had a wooden deck to avoid being top-heavy and flipping upside-down in rough water. Carriers aren't very useful upside-down. Prop planes weigh practically nothing compared to modern fighter jets, so you didn't have them crashing through the deck, either.

 

[choxorn]

But Civ doesn't have any Prop Planes...

 

[God-Emperor]

Of course it does. Everything in CIv4 is just a prop. Nothing in the game you see is real.
