Whom does the civilization celebrate under despotism at 'we love the ____ day'?

[Strategist83]

The despot?

[[to_xp]Gekko]

the tyrant, or however it is written.

[Arrian]

The despot.

As an aside... maybe I missed it when I read the manual, but what does it *do* in CivIV? I haven't noticed anything dramatic...

City gets no maintaince cost.

But I have no idea what triggers "we love the king" thing.

[xxFlukexx]

A city under WLTK day incurs no maintenance costs for that turn. So yeah really not much benefit there. I hope they will eventually make it so WLTK days are actually useful so having a super happy pop might be a strategy or something.

[Arrian]

Ah, I see. Thanks (I don't know the exact trigger either)...

-Arrian

[Enigma_Nova]

It's in the manual somewhere.
Requirements are:
Size 7 or greater city that has had no unhappiness or unhealth for some undisclosed time
Effect is:
No Maintenence costs that turn

[wardhali]

it could have more impact, but it is by no means a negative point in the game, just one that can be improved

[Strategist83]

One says the tyrant, another the despot. Oh well...

[pauli]

traditionally, it would be "we love the despot day."

and i miss the old, highly valuable, we love the king days. cities that grow EVERY TURN given sufficient food? hell yes!

and let's not forget the parades...

My son has a small battery-powered rabbit pull-toy (we call it "MotoRabbit") that plays one of three classical tunes when the button on its back is pressed. One of those is Beethoven's "Ode to Joy," just like "We Love the _____ Day" in Civ I.
