IMO it is unfair that aggressive civs don't get combat 1 and combat 2 if they build Pact of the Nilhorn. Should this be changed?

IMO It should have to be earned like the animals and other units do if it is brought back......just because the bombard and pillage are great doesn't mean that they shouldn't be able to earn a little experience.......but I don't think they should start with the combat promotion or the balance issue goes the other way or at least the complaints do if someone else makes it first.Bad Player said:

I've found PoN to be of great help lately, postpones the need for construction for a while.

I'm confused - I thought combat 2 would mean that you get +20% strength???*
As it stands, agressive civs get combat 1 just like non-aggressive civs.
*This is why I called myself Bad Player - forgive my lack of knowledge but I thought combat 2 gives you combat 1 but maybe not?

When a first read this wonder's description, I thought it grants peace with the barbarians, like the trait.
May I propose this idea for a new wonder? Alternatively, Pact of Nilhorn could give a short peace with the barbarians, something like 20 or 30 turns.

It would be nice to have a revenge system. If you received something for avenging one's death...

None of my Hill Giants have ever had any combat promotions upon creation.
Is this an error on my end, and if not, why is there so much discussion about free promotions for them?

Before they had bombardment the giants used to spawn in with Combat I, they lost that when they gained bombard and pilliaging abilities.
The thing is, it's entirely possible for the pact to be built when giants are so completely outclassed that you never use them for anything but bombardment (personally, hasteable catapults are pretty solid, and I don't mind using them like that), so people are thinking of souping them up.

No, seriously. I mean none of them have EVER had combat promotions. In .014, .013, etc.

There was never a public version where they started with Combat I. I had it in my copy for a little while until someone came up with the bombardment idea, at which point I removed the Combat I and added bombardment instead.

Ah, thanks Kael.
Now it makes sense.
