I have 2 questions for some Activisionaries.1. Can other civs settle in your own border? If they could, the game would be completely ruined for me. One of the most annoying thing in Civ2/CTP is that the AI will settle the tinniest gap in your cities. 2. When you conquer a city, would there be an option to pillage instead of take (Or take the entire city population into slavery)?

first of all things are going to be a bit more different, since there is an exact border line, and not zones of control around the cities.secondly, this is one my habits in smac(which had borders like ctp2 will have), i wouldnt want to loose it!

I meant settle in borders as in settle inside your borders. If you could, it would be tremendously stupid:'Canada has secretely settled a colony in the United States. The US was forced to change its borders to accomodate the colony. The land stretching 5km in all directions from the colony was handed over to Canada'

I would love to have the option to pillage captured enemy city, that's a common behavior for a victorious army in History. But such an act shall arouse huge protects from other civs and lower your reputation. The conscquences should be more serious in modern time than Ancient time. |

We were told in a post from Activision (in a thread about 'solving' ICS using expanding city radius) that cities cannot be settled within 2 spaces of each other.

It should only lower your reputation with othe rcivs that you know. If you meet a civ afterwards, the pillage is just a rumor.------------------
