    But the GW walls can't be sabotaged. Most of my attack groups will include x number of diplos/spys to take care of anyone that thinks that city walls will protect their city from ferrets. and sending 30 shield diplos to demolish more expensive improvements can be fun in it's own right.

        Yes, you're quite correct, the diplo takes down wall is not an AI strategy.
        But it is so prevalant in MP that no one really builds walls anymore. (unless it's a city with many many many improvements. And even then, it's rare)

          if someone reaches your city, your asking for it to be taken anyways...... remember the old days with diplos...

          you could go in and change the name on the opponent and rename his city "next" ...

                  "Next" was always right up there with "Mine"

                  It is good to see that most people have voted for the logical choice. The 20% for GW has remained pretty consistent throughout the voting...

                      Since the attack would usually happen that turn, unless you saw considerably more defense than you expected, not a waste of a dip by any means.
                      But If I think I have overwelming force, I won't bother with the dip either.

                          The answer is definitely banana on this one. Don't care if I have neither.

                              The answer is easy: cowards and fear hares built GW, all others ST. GW is useless against attack from sea. Against attacks on landside you can build fortresses on strategic points. You allways need vet units. With ST you save monex every turn and every ship becomes vet after a fight. It´s nice to attack poor barb units with ships. During my SP-time I left a 2size-city at the coast for the barbs to produce vet-ships.
                              Nothing is more painful than regret.

                                What's the significance of a 2size-city?
