When looking at city in the regular map view, I notice a % to the right of the city (i.e. 20%, 60%, 80%, etc). What does this indicate?
Under Vassalage, new units recieve +2 experience points. Seems like a really good thing to combine with Theocracy to build a powerful force.. Right?
But it also says something to the effect of receiving 12 units. What does that mean??
What file holds the default Leader Name in the game start up? I would like to change that. Thanks.![]()
no - just that you compete for the control of a few tiles.I am getting my 8 yr old daughter addicted to CIV and we are playing a team game. I am "trapped" between her, the ocean, and the glaciers, but need to expand (early game, no ships yet). There is a ripe spot for a city just outside her borders--so, it would have borders with her, but none with me. Since we're a team, is there any cost (maintenance, whatever) to this?
Is there any way to "free" a vassal? I had a vassal (through a strategic capitulation) who was doing great, and for political reasons, I wanted them to be on their own to negotiate their peace with someone I was still at war with. I couldn't find a way to "release" them from their vassalage.
1) How do I improve water tiles? Workers improve land tiles, how about water tiles?
2) What are work boats used for?

Two questions:
1) In the screen shot below, Jersusalem has Iron. I built the "Maccabee" (Swordsman) there. There are rivers and roads leading to Tel Aviv. Why can't Tel Aviv build a Maccabee?

2) It seems like some times a resource needs a road to get all its benefits to the city, and sometimes it does not (land-based only, of course!). I've been confused about this forever. Page 72 of the Manual says "If an improved resource is within the city's radius, that city will get the benefit of the resource, roads or no roads. However, cities further away must be connected to the resource's sapce .. to get the benefits." But I swear that if I hold the mouse over a Pig resource, let's say, that is within the BFC, the game will 'prompt' me that one of more of the benefits of the resource will not accrue until I build a road. What am I missing here?
