    I didn't think a palace could be sabatoged. But I have a lack of experience in these situations.

      I saw a spy and a howitzer land. The howitzer fired twice, damaging my MI's, then the spy bribed the city. It turned to the vikings, not just a random palace sabotage.

        Are you sure the spy did not capture the city. Sometimes it happens real quick, expecially where howi's are concerned.

          Spies cannot capture cities, unless the PC version of Civ II is radically different from the Mac version. Settlers and engineers, however, *can* capture cities. Caravans/freights *cannot* capture cities.

            If it fired twice, it would have to have destroyed one of the MIs, if not both.

              I had LOTS of units in the city... It was bribed for sure.

                The message was "citizens of rome revolt" or something like that. I bribed the city back next turn, and saw two MI's with damage in the yellow. I think this is a bug, although my palace is not often in a place where a spy can get to it while a spaceship is in flight.

                  I think it's a *rare* AI cheat ability at the Emperor and above levels, personally.

                    Possible but I would have thought someone else would have encountered it and mentioned it. My money is on a bug until we have further information.

                      My guess as well

                        I am surprised. Over all the years here, this is the first time that someone has mentioned this. Especially after years of OCC.

                          Even if the phenomenon existed I would think the cap was exempt in OCC.

                            Well, I've mentioned it once or twice before, rah, but I suppose everyone just thought it was a Mac-centric issue. Well, HAH! You were all wrong! NYAH-NYAH!
