Hi!

Has it already been documented that you can get extra shields when short rushing in a city the has used engineers the turn before?

Thanks!
 
I'm pretty sure I recall this, but it's a looong time since I played Civ3, and I never got into C3C. No doubt the current top players will be along to comment.
 
Personally, I'm not very concerned about this since engineers appear so late in the game, at a point when all my games have already been decided. The only important GOTM builds in the IA are ToE and perhaps Hoover Dam, and those can't be short rushed anyway. Possibly, an epic sid game could be an exception, but building railroads is the only kind of micromanage I'm willing to do in the IA. Interesting, though. Obviously it should be banned, if not formally then informally.
