Something really strange happened yesterday. I was playing on Warlord, as the Greeks, in a 6-way game on a Small map. I conquered 3 of the other 5 civs, made peace with the last two (who were on another continent) and won by spaceship. I had almost all of the wonders, some massive cities, and I was getting techs every 4 turns even at 40% science.
But, it felt like something was missing. Then I realized what it was:
I hadn't had a single palace improvement. The ENTIRE game, not a single one. Nothing unusual about the game; my capital had 8 or 9 Wonders, my people were always happy (We love the Emperor days everywhere). I was maybe 10 turns away from a Culture victory when the ship launched, and I could have had a Domination victory at any time I wanted (I had about 65% of the land).
But still no palace improvements. Didn't turn them off; didn't ignore the messages; it just never offered to improve.
