Gifting Units

[manthephilssuck]

I have been wondering about several aspects of gifting units to the AI.

1. Is it possible to gift nukes? I know air units can be gifted, but there is no option to gift nukes to the AI. If one were to gift a nuclear sub with nuclear missiles in it, would the receiving party get only the sub, or would the missiles come with it as well.

2. When gifting units that require a resource, does the receiving party need to have the necessary resource/ number of resources to use that unit? Because once it has been gifted, you receive that resource slot back.


Let me apologize if this has been addressed already. I spent a fair amount of time trying to find these answers and couldn't.

It would be great to hear more about any other interesting bits of information regarding this subject.

I'm not 100% on this, but from what I know of playing the game and watching other's play on YouTube, my answers are:

1. No, no nuke gifting. If you gift a sub with nukes, the nukes disappear.
2. Yes, the resource is required. City States suffer the -50% modifier if they don't have any/enough of the required resource.

If I'm wrong, no doubt somebody will correct me. Perhaps somebody can divine answers from the xml?
