here's a question
why did they get rid of zones of control like they had before?Comment

I think so the AI could make more accurate unit movement decisions and more lethal attacks, or some such thing.Call to Power 2: Apolyton Edition - download the latest version (12th June 2011)

dissident: the old ZOC made a lot more sence in cases where you had a defence line. now you've got to fill every single field, before you could just have every 2nd tile occupied.
otoh the old ZOC was completely stupid, because movement wasn't possible, even if you were passing a settler, worker, scout or whatever.
imho, they should keep the ZOC-flag but have the effects of civ2-ZOC. so you can run past a bunch of settlers and warriors, but not past modern units (and also long range units like longbowmen, which have the ZOC-flag activated in my mod)- Artificial Intelligence usually beats real stupidity

If they made fortresses have a civ II like ZOC, then I'm sure people would be more likely to build them. As it is now, the main reason for building those fortresses is gone - defense per unit and not a stack destruction.badamsComment

yeah, pretty usless...
there should have been a compromise, maybe having ZOC with two close units for example.A true ally stabs you in the front.

Two important things:
(1) 1.29f patch for the original version
(2) A way to disable culture flipping in Expansion pack.

What is culture flipping?If you must do harm to a man, harm him in such a way as to prevent him ever being able to seek revenge upon you. -- Niccolo MachiavelliComment

ask coracle
no, now seriously: it's when a city decides to flip to another governement because the other culture is greater than the culture of the former nation. it's a great way for growing without war.
but warmongers hate it because it forces them to have a lot of units guarding the city or rush-build temples.- Artificial Intelligence usually beats real stupidity

Ahh, that's what that's called.
I tend to play very defensive and cultural. I've all but conquered other countries this way
And I tend to have small and rather pathetic armies.
Oh well.

I believe with the latest patch, that city would never flip. Units can stop flipping.Originally posted by Tuomerehu

what the hell were 50 infantry doing in ONE city???With 1.29f original it still was a major nuisance. It's possible that you'd need defense on the top level.I believe with the latest patch, that city would never flip. Units can stop flipping.Comment
