Mesopotamia Scenario

[Blueberry]

Hi, I am currently playing Egypt in the Mesopotamia Scenario.
I don't seem to be able to build Forbidden Palace altough I have
researched the required tech. In the description for the FP it
says ten cities are required, I have thirteen. Must you have
ten city-cities?

And another thing. If you conquer a city that has a Great Wonder,
will you receive victory points as if you built it yourself, and will the
enemy in question lose the same amount of victory points?

And at least. Are you awarded VP's only for the techs you have
researched yourself and not the ones you have traded for?

IIRC: you get points for building a wonder but not for capturing one, and you don't lose points if you lose the wonder. Likewise with techs: you only get points for the ones you research yourself. Don't know about your FP problem. You can't build it in your captial if that's what you're trying to do. Are you sure there is an FP in this scenario?

 

[Pfeffersack]

Hmm, about FP...IIRC you need cities half as much as the OCN, which depends on difficulty and map size.I assume that the FP is not even displayed in the building list, so it cannot be the chopped-forest/rushing-restriction concerning wonders...

Are you trying to build it in your capitol? If so, then that's your problem. Can't build forbidden palace in capitol. If your not, then I have no idea how to help you.

I am not trying to build FP in my capital.
But thankyou very much for the valuable information, anyway!

Does the Forbidden Palace require stone in this scenario? That might be the problem.

 

[Dave the Monkey]

The FP requires ten cities on the standard size map.

Is the map bigger than standard? If so the number of cities required increases.

 

[Blueberry]

I have three stones.
The FP doesn't require any resources at all,
at least that what i says in this scenario.
The Mesopotamia map is 94x84.
What's a standard size map?

 

[Blueberry]

Sorry, the map is 90x84.
