Hello,

I would like to find out (purely for my interest!) if someone knows just how many cities can be build max.

I have seen someone who used 30 civs on one map.. so how many unique cities can exist at once? Is it still this silly maximum of 255 or has it been extended to a larger number?

And the same goes for the max population anyone can have in his/her empire.. in 'old' Civ2 the max was 320.000.000. After that on-screen there would be no more increase. Although I understand it had something to do with the datatypes used I have hopes Activision has provided in a much larger amount.

Again, if someone knows what the max is now, please tell me.

I'm that type of player who likes to grow (and play the game) until everything is at the max .

It's kinda like playing SimCity until every square is filled with buildings.. the challenge of winning isn't the most important thing for me.. being able to play in 10.000 AD is.. I know, I'm strange hehe..

Okay, thanks for any replies.

Aco

Well if the civ exceeds the maximum number of cities for a government type that "to the max" philosophy will really hurt you.

I see.. do you know of which govermenttype allows for the largest amount of cities then?

But the possibility that it is doable to grow very large is intriguing.. even with a penalty..

Thanks anyways for your response .

I think Virtual Democracy allows the largest number of cities (75 or so?)

FWIW In CtP1 if the limits weren't there more than 400. I don't know exactly, but I was playing around on the scenario editor, and kept building city after city.
I have no reason to believe that you can't build ridiculous amounts of cities in CtP2 too.

BTW 400 cities is a LOT of cities.
