The best 4x game ever is Stars! and none other! Too bad it's a Windows 3.1 game :p

Game shouldn't ever use blocking popups anyway. Promotions like the unit promotions in Civ IV is a much much better idea.

[/quote] Any country that is so desperate that it needs to field his women in the army cause it already enroled all mens will have soon a very nice starving army with nothing to defend.

Imbuing a champion seems like a pretty heavy enchantment to cast for the champion and the sovereign, kind of a strong magic bond between the two. Maybe this enchantment shouldn't be that easy to cancel, maybe even plain impossible. Or add a costly spell you can use to sever the bond.

What happens if you build a town in a completely separate island and teleport a caravan to it. How will the small automatic caravans handle that? Swimming?
