Once you can build railroads, are you able to just build a road instead?
this is insane ...
810BC corporation, and not the easy Sushi either.
Which part?
The domination limit is determined by how many leaders are on the scoreboard, that have been there since the beginning of the game. It seems like a design bug to me. I suppose the designers didn't want new colonies to decrease the domination limit, so they implemented the check for original AI only, but didn't take into account that original AI can be removed from scoreboard. And why it simply isn't locked at the start of the game is beyond me...I'm not sure I've understood the domination limit thingy correctly. Basically for 76% limit you "only" have to push out every original AI away from the scoreboard -- the newly created AIs don't have to be your vassals?
So basically you settle a city on a corp res, gift it and then cap the AI? How can you be sure that the AI accepts the city gift -- is there a trick for that?I have several islands planned where I settle right on top of a coal, copper, iron, or silver. I'd put a vassal there and get capitulation.
They'll accept any city as long has they have 3 or less.How can you be sure that the AI accepts the city gift -- is there a trick for that?
True, but you also have -diplo penalties. That might have mattered to me earlier, but now I use middle-finger diplomacy.half of a vassal's land is counted towards the dom limit, right? In this case it's a very cheap +1 happiness.
Even without strike mode, those cities can pay off, and I probably will do anything that adds to my research rate. No sense being lazy now.Once you switch to Strike mode, settling here will pay off very quickly (assuming that you can spread corps early enough), and they would only add a few land tiles. Do you plan to settle there?
