Once I take over one of the NPC worthless spamed cities is there anyway to just raze it? I want to wipe them out I just don't want to keep all their cities that seam to be placed by every single resourse, dang!
There is a tech to be able to raze cities, or you can hit the 'X' key and then hit the X in the upper right corner of the city details page.
Razing should also carry some type of penaty, you are after all killing the population of that city.
I suggest that razing a kingdom city makes the other kingdom's more hostile to your sovereign and more likely to join in an alliance against your kingdom/empire.
I would like to see such actions (razing an enemy's cities) also inspire them to adopt a similar policy towards your cities.
Well, I don't think that they are completely worthless. I find them useful when playing Empire. Ilyan Orekeepers have a ogre camp which will allow you to produce them--a nice addition to your armies. Cities also keep your territory contiguous which helps with movement/trade route, and some times they have a shard in there territory, which in most cases makes it a keeper.
I agree, but only after they get the city spam under control. I played a medium map on normal today and the first Sov I ran into on turn 54 had 14 cities. It is not even fun right now because of it. I want to develop a Kingdom/Empire, not race to see how many cities I can start. Razing them is the only thing you can do with them right now. Make limitations on the number of cities and I would absolutely agree with a penalty for razing a city.
