Religion Holy City/Fog of War

[HavenDuuk]

The manual and traits seem to suggest that any Holy City you hold offers the advantage of seeing into other cities, however this isn't true.

It is only a Holy City you hold which is also your state religion.

Honestly, I'd like to see it be *any* religion you hold the holy city for. That way the initial religion placement (and subsequent conquest) can be very worthwhile, even for people with "Free Religion".

What I've found is that if you "found" a religion, any time that religion spreads to a foreign city, it's radius is exposed from under the fog. In my last game, I founded 4 of the religions and I "saw" virtually all of the map with almost no exploration.

I think it'll be too powerful to have line of sight for any religion you hold the holy city for. There's no longer any choice between which religion to convert to or which ones to spread.

So, if you conquer a holy city, you lose the benefit of Line of Sight, even under Free Religion? Dang.
