I had an idea recently that I think would add an interesting twist to Civilization. Bare with me here. What if at a randomly generated point in time, a randomly selected capital city was deemed 'holy'. They could use the word 'holy' so that way it is applicaple to all religions.
Once this holy-staus is established, there is some sort of mega-incentive to capture it with a new victory condition, i.e. controling the city continously for 1000 years or something. Perhaps something could be included so that the holy city has some sort of anti-raze ability.. or if it is razed you have an unremovable black-eye on your diplomatic status.
Anyways, I don't know if this has been discussed, I'm relatively new to the boards. Maybe some of you think it too closely parallels current events, but I just thought it would provide an interesting way to focus military aggression and paranoia.
