Hey CFC community, hope everyone is doing well. So I am a long time Civ 3 fanatic and consider myself a decently skilled player. Recently I was playing a match where I moved my palace and it got me wondering, when is it really worth it to do?
With the sheer volume of shields it takes, it is ever really worth it to move your palace? How often do you do it?
To me, it seems like it would be a decision I would only make as a last resort. When my palace is in an alright spot, but there is a clearly more central and higher production town nearby, that will even be able to build a palace in a semi reasonable amount of time.
I think partly depends on your map size. On smaller maps it's surely redundant.. But on a lot of the huge maps I have played recently, it seems like there is almost always a much better more suitable location nearby.
I wonder how early would it need to be completed to really have a positive effect on the overall outcome? Does it really help that much or is it counter productive?
Does anyone have any insight? I didn't try to do research yet. I thought maybe it would be an interesting subject to start a conversation about
