Thanks, but none of this was the case.
- The city had flipped 2 times already before, and this example starts after I recaptured it for the third time.
- This last time, I had finally wiped out the original owner of the city.
- The city was size 3
- The city was surrounded by 3 cities of mine (captured) 1 city of mine (original) and 4 cities form another civ
- The city started with -20 bc of surrounding cities
- After about 4 turns, it went down to -3 because of surrounding cities
I dont think it increased in population, tho Im not sure. but from -20 to -3, it seems a lot.
EDIT: Ah silly me! I now see what happened. I changed from dark age to golden age
Dont really like the system a lot, since era events ocurr automaticly when I play, its not something I plan much. And if Im supposed to plan them, I dont like the system either. I wont delay clearing a barb encampement or settling a city, to time the era score. Seems totally counter intuitive to me.
