[BETA 4][Bug] Can found kingdom even if I already have one city ready

from Elemental Forums

I started a game as Procipinee/New Pariden. Had a city ready built at the beginning, and and it seems I can select "Found Kingdom" as Procipinee and sure enough it gives me a second city right at the start! Is this intentional, or some oversight? Seems odd founding my kingdom when I already have a city...

That's New Pariden's faction ability.

Cool, the whole 'start with a city already' bonus seemed weak before!

So you get two cities? Nice, but that "Found Kingdom" is still a bit misleading in that case since you already have your kingdom. Nitpicking, I know, sorry :P It is a nice change really, like Dekent said the ability was a bit weak before.

Pariden's faction ability was gimped in 3C.  Sometimes the pre-built city wasn't adjacent to the fertile ground.  This can cause slow starts when it was meant to give an early game advantage.  One of these could fix this faction ability:

  1. Code the pre-built city to ALWAYS be next to fertile ground.
  2. Give the Pariden player the ability to "found kingdom" twice.
  3. Give the Pariden player a starter unit that can found a new city.
