I have the tech to do it, I built it in one city, but I can't seem to build it in any others. I have barracks in all cities. What's up with that?

I never build them, but it only has two requirements
1-barracks
2-120 gold
If you have both then it should be allowed. -
I have both, and they aren't available. I was able to build it one city, that's it.Tutto nel mondo è burlaComment

Do you have Sun Tzu's? IIRC, if a Barracks is provided through a wonder before you built it normally, it doesn't work as a prerequisite for another building or a small wonder.Comment

Well, that's a pain in the arse. So basically Sun Tzu negates the ability to have civil defenses!Tutto nel mondo è burlaComment

That would seem to undermine the value of Sun Tzu to a degree... I guess you have to bury your Terra Cotta warriors and embrace the modern era.Originally posted by Boris Godunov

Ouch. If it is the case that Sun Tzu makes it impossible to build Civil Defences, this should go in the bug report thread.Libraries are state sanctioned, so they're technically engaged in privateering. - Felch

Not sure if I would call that a bug...
perhaps more like a choice... Not every city would need a civil defense, so you just need to build barracks in the cities that do.Haven't been here for ages....Comment

The point is that with Sun Tzu's free barracks, you don't have the option of 'actually' building a barracks. Anyhow, this bug is reported to have been fixed in Conquests, presumably because the new Temple of Artemis wonder (free temples) otherwise wouldn't have allowed cathedrals.Originally posted by Shogun Gunner

This has been known for a long time. It was an intentional "feature", IIRC (I think I remember it appearing in the changes list for one of the original civ3 patches), but it is extrememly annoying.Originally posted by Thoth

Not sure what the big need is for civil defense. Your main empire will not need it and the fringe cities can' build it. It is a huge expense, which probably could be replaced with a few extra MI's.Comment

I built Sun Tzu's in my current Conquests game and can build civil defense in cities that never had a "hand made" barracks.

Yes it has been verified that Sun TZU is not a block to civil defense. So that was reported in error.Originally posted by Catt

Or something else was at play causing them not being able to build.
Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?
Then why call him God? - EpicurusComment

I wonder if this was a user mod? Otherwise as I said only two things are required AFAIK. Barracks and 120 gold, if you have the tech.Comment
