Always play on marathon and have a 6-turns repair period which is reasonable. Come back to Vox Populi after one year rest and realize that now it takes only 3 turns. Feels weird. Now it is pretty pointless attempting to destroy as many improvements as i can before ceasefire and delaying enemy development such way. Same with event choices that takes away good chunk of city food/production OR turns some improvents around to pillaged state. Choice is nonexistent now - you can restore your farms and mines almost instantly.

[Vote] - (7-66) Make Forts Pillageable and The Time To Repair Improvements Stop Scaling With Game Speed
In the current espionage system, NP rate and mission cooldowns don't scale with game speed, but either mission cost or mission effect scale for those that matter (e.g. Tech Steal, Gold Steal). However, there are two missions that pillage improvements with constant cost AND effect, which is fine...

Ok. I strongly disagree that repairing time has tactical appliance only. Pillaged tiles leads to massive income decrease and unhappiness ( directly through pillaged tiles itself, through decreased yields unmeeting needs requirements, through disconnected luxuries ) and repairing after a huge war usually takes some time and efforts.
But now quicker game pace means more devastating pillage. 3 turns on Marathon means literally nothing, 3 turns on Quick and even Standart is brutal. Also it breaks balance of choices for some events where pillaged tiles are potential outcome.
And all of this is sort of sacrifice to balance one or two espionage missions? IMHO, better then just to remove this missions completely ( if no other ways to adjust it to different game paces )

How hard would it be to get a toggle option to scale repair times with gamespeed?
As it is on Marathon, pillaged tiles are just an inconvenience and I have never opted for those missions from events personally.

Spy missions don't scale with game speed?
