Stacking, culture, and ICS

[Grumbold]

I think the whole way Civ-3 is allegedly emulating armies is bad, but the 1 army per 4 cities seems particularly silly. If generals/admirals were ranked for skill then there would always be one stack you wantedto do the major battles with but as many less competent ones available as you had men to put under their command. If the generals themselves cost gold to support then there would be an additional incentive to pay no more of them than you needed to do the tasks at hand. Replace all these artificial game limits with sensible reasons to do the same thing.
