Hanging Gardens?

[madscientist]

If you capture an AI city that has the hanging gardens, do you get the benefit in all your currents cities? Seams like I did after catpuring the wonder arround 1800 AD.

yes, im pretty sure about the inherent +1 health in all of your cities. Idk about the increase in population, though.

AFAIK that's the case with all the wonders. You always get the benefits of them after capturing.

You don't get the +1 pop. That is a one time benefit for only the cities that currently exist for the civ that builds it. But you do get the +1 health.

I never thought about that... if you get stonehenge you get monuments in all of your old cities as well as new, I wonder why the hanging gardens is a one time benefit.

it would be quite strange if two civs kept recapturing and losing the hanging gardens, then. I guess you could make so one pop is subtracted when you lose it...

that's what I figured happened, you'd lose a pop point. I never build it really unless I am gunning for an engineer city. and then I never lose it.

That would be a bit wired. Imagine losing 1 pop in each of your 20 citys just because someone captured a 4000 yeras old wonder from you.

I think it's fine as it's now, I mean you also can't get rocketry for free because you captured a city with the oracle in it.

I always thought when you got the HG you get 1 pop and i health to all cities. Subsequent cities do not get the extra pop which makes sense, but I guess they still get the +1 health. In that case it makes sense what I am seeing, thanks all.

good point qwertz, I would never build it in that case I would just find it and wait to take it
