A bit of maths. For level 5 we need 1000 citizens. Appartments provides 160 in 4 tiles : 40 citizens per tile (house provide 30 per tile) 1000 / 40 = 25. But appartments need 4 tiles. So you need to use 6 appartments and 2 houses = 26 tiles We need 26 tiles to let a city get to level 5. And that's with the best housing possible (at the moment). Isn't 26 tiles a bit too much ? One more problem : how will we be able to create an army of 10 000 men from a

To train faster you need barracks. Armories will speed up the process in creating the equipment needed. If you create a swordmen, the game calculate that you need to : forge the sword, the armor and then train the peasant. All of that take time. And resources. If you have the resources, the forge and barracks you will speed things up.

You can see that my little town can't build the farm. Now that we can cap improvements out of town, it seems that when a city grows, it keep the future tiles for it. If a tile is empty, another city should be able to build on it.

Ok, I got that one ! The first city has an upkeep of 1, the second an upkeep of 2, the third an upkeep of 3. So the total upkeep should be : 1+2+3+4+...

Someone need to sleep, cause "+" and "*" aren't the same operation ;) Instead of adding the upkeeps, the

There is already a random element : the color of techs. Red techs have less chance to appear on breakthrough. Yellow ones, will almost surely appear. Green ones will appear. When you see them in the research screen it just shows what you "might" get when you reach a breakthrough. The more level on the path, the more chance a tech will become of the better color (red --> yellow --> green)

After a battle results (I won) my peasants were shown with the same attack value as the roll. And the roll was really high for peasants with only 4 points in attack. Maybe that comes from my profession "assassin". But shouldn't only be in combat with my sovereign ? EDIT: In fact, units in a city get +16 attack and def*16. <img src="http://content.screencast.com/users/vieuxchat/folders/Jing/media/1ae7aef3-d662-48b6-a840-cbaee5cf73b8/2010-03-05_0838.png" alt="" width="667" heigh
