    I don't know the answer to your first question, Underseer, but it would be easy to test by replacing the capital city of a civ with a long string, say ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ for starters, and see what displays in a new gamestart.

    For your second question, it depends on the code page your local computer is using. I tried using one that displayed Cyrillic characters (I was playing Russia), but the Latin characters with diacritical marks did not display correctly. I believe the standard setup will display almost all the so-called special characters in the Latin set.

        Shouldn't it be "Stonewall" Jackson, with "Stonewall" in quotes? It was a nickname, after all.

          If you feel the need to put Stonewall in quotes, go for it it is your list after all, or you could use his Christian name; Thomas.

            I do agree with your point that it should be easier to determine how many cities each civ has. At the very least the list of cities on the advisor screen should be numbered.
            Just so it is a easily multiplied number and some civs are hard to come up with 25 reasonable city names. new25_AAAA means you have 2x 25 or 50 cities. Aztec, Carth, Golths, Zulu examples of civs not easy to get names for.

            Best would be an info screen from Firaxis telling us the number of cites each civ has, but without that use the numbering system to keep track of each civ's size easier.

              Ok I stand corrected. Springfield was listed because that is where Lincoln lived when he was elected to the House. Trivia- his one and only house in Springfield, ILL, was purchased for $1,500.
