    Yes, you gain the culture bonus and city defense values. Since they cannot bombard the defenses, they will usually just bypass it. That has been my experience.

    I often place "lookouts" in nuetral civ lands when at war, rarely fo the get attacked inside the cities, but almost always when they are spotted on a hill.

      Yeah, I had stationed airships in a french city to bomb the ottomans with, and he walks a jannisary into the city wipes out the whole lot. Needless to say, I was pissed.

      I think that opinion in the United States is decidedly different from the rest of the world because we have a free press -- by free, I mean a virgorously presented right wing point of view on the air and available to all.- Ned

            Did out relations improve by even +1? NO WAY.

            Doesn't the gifting of units improve your relations with the AI?
            2 units during lategame is nothing. Should you gift a large number of units, then a small relation boost maybe would be in order. However, the bonus shuold be limited to +1 or +2. Otherwise it would be too easy to improve relations.

            Also, A.I should understand that the gifting away of units mostly is not something done out of generosity - thus should futher limit the possible relation gain.
            GOWIEHOWIE! Uh...does that
            even mean anything?

              Gratitude is so rare in humans that maybe the game does well in making the AI ungrateful.

                I disagree I've had several MP games in which a onetime ally was grateful enough for my assistance earlier that they came to my aid later on. It's just a matter of not relying on that gratitude

                  Trust no one. If gifting units to another civ benefits you, go for it. Otherwise, use trade to develop more positive relations.
