well, my capital was also my commercial centre with tons of towns, coastal resources, silk, etc. it has set clipped my total economy by about 30% and my production by nearly a quarter!
and i must admit that i'm pretty pissed off!
corossol, this might sound like a sore loser talking, but razing important cities is not an honourable way to win a game. it's one thing if you're trying to deny an oil resource and you destroy the size-3 one-tile island city to achieve that. but a capital???
did you see me razing hamburg? no, of course not!
even though it's easy for you to take back. the cultural borders won't expand for at least 50 turns so you're always going to be in striking distance with even the 1-tile movers. i left it there because it's a challenge to hold such a city and because it's the right thing to do.
well, my respect for you has sunk massively. before i admired your overall dominance in "waterfront", your massive economy and techlead in "ice age" and your fascinating co-dominance in "industrial" (despite worse lands). but now? ...
anyhow, i will continue this game until my annihilation is definitive but y'all need to give me a few more days to micromanage and save what i have got left.
