Some of the MOST UNREALISTIC Elements in CIVIII

Actually, the guns that calvary had were pretty bad. They used swords most of the time and would have the same defense of knights, possibly less because of no armor. Even the guns they had were poor defense because of the slow reloading time. They would be much weaker defensive, with no innitiative to attack with. Its one thing to charge a scared enemy with swords and a few rounds, its another to be on the defense with a dead horse.

The only thing that really gets to me is movement/time ratio. It doesn't take a ship like, 20+ years to travel across the world. Large armies were being moved across the world as early as the 1700's, thats the only reality-based thing that bugs me in Civ3.

Just read what Genghis Kahn did when he conquered 100000's pop Bagdad in 13th century
Compared to Genghis Kahn, Hitler was Santa Claus in a bad mood!

They allowed the "RAZE" option because a lot of people dont like to deal with big cities with a lot of resistence... i mean why would u want to capture a 24 size enemy city? it will take u like 40 units to kill the resistence... is more easier to raze the city and put urself a new city there...

AS I SAID BEFORE UNITS IN CIV 3 EG.: INFANTRY. IS NOT A SINGLE UNIT BUT A GROUP OF THEM A PLATOON, COHORT, OR JUST A RANDOM GROUP
MIGHT BE THAT A PLATOON OF HORSMEN COULD RAZE A CITY
BUT EVEN IF THEY CUOLD'T THE RAZE OPTION IS MORE PRACTICAL
THAN REALISTIC
