Cities are the centers of population, production and power. When founded or captured, a City is assigned to a Family. The first City founded by a Nation is its Capital and gains a yearly bonus of +2 [[File:YIELD CULTURE.png|25px]] Culture and [[File:YIELD MONEY.png|25px]] +2 Money. Cities can only be founded on certain locations called City Sites, which are initially controlled by Tribes.

During war a City's HP bar will be shown. Once a City's HP reaches zero a Unit can be moved on it, at which point the City enters a state of Anarchy for a few turns. If a Unit is kept on the City tile until the Anarchy ends the City will be annexed by the army's owner. Each point of HP damage also reduces a City's yields by 2.5% until repaired. Cities regain 1 HP each year.

A developed city

Cities are the centers of population, production and power. When founded or captured, a City is assigned to a Family. The first City founded by a Nation is its Capital and gains a yearly bonus of +2 Culture and +2 Money. Cities can only be founded on certain locations called City Sites, which are initially controlled by Tribes.

During war a City's HP bar will be shown. Once a City's HP reaches zero a Unit can be moved on it, at which point the City enters a state of Anarchy for a few turns (1 turn per culture level it had achieved prior to its capture). If a Unit is kept on the City tile until the Anarchy ends the City will be annexed by the unit's owner. Each point of HP damage also reduces a City's yields by 2.5% until repaired. Cities regain 1 HP each year.

Culture level

Each city has a culture level, which is increased each time the Culture bar fills. Culture level provides increasing bonuses to the city but also increasing costs per Citizen and Specialist.

Once a City reaches Developing Culture Level it will gain the ability to Hurry Production using a chosen resource, causing the item at the top of the production queue to be finished next turn. Each turn that an item is produced normally decreases the resources needed to rush it. However Hurry Production always produces Discontent unless the Monetary Reform law has been passed.

Improvements

Improvements are constructed by Worker units can be used to grant various bonuses to a City. There are two types of improvements: rural and urban. If a Worker unit is selected the game will suggest the tile where each improvement is most effective, as long as said improvement can be constructed either immediately or after buying resources.

Improvements without a Specialist will increase the City's Maintenance.

Improvements may be pillaged by military units. A pillaged improvement does not produce anything and will be destroyed in 10 turns unless repaired by a Worker unit. Repairing an improvement costs half of its construction cost. Damaged Worker units also take an extra turn to build improvements

Rural improvements

Rural improvements can only be constructed on non-urban tiles. They require either certain terrain or a certain natural resource present on the tile.

Urban improvements

Most urban improvements come in three tiers. A higher tier improvement requires a lower tier one to be constructed before it can be built, as well as increasing the city's Culture Level by one for each tier. Urban improvements can be constructed on Urban, Arid, Lush or Temperate tiles, and Sand tiles if the city is run by a family of Clerics, but only if one the following is true:

  • An urban tile.
  • A tile adjacent to two urban tiles. The tile will become urban once the improvement is completed.
  • A tile adjacent to one urban tile and one water tile. The tile will become urban once the improvement is completed.

Hamlets

Once the City reaches at least Developing Culture Level and the Nation has the Polis technology, Workers will be able to construct Hamlets the cost of 40 Stone and 1 Orders for 4 years. Only one Hamlet may be build per Culture Level. After 20 years a Hamlet will grow into a Village, and after another 20 years the Village it will grow into a Town. All of them improve the output of Odeon and Bath improvements. Hovering over a Hamlet or Town will show the number of years until it upgrades.

Shrines

Shrines require the Divination technology, 40 Stone and 1 Orders for 4 years. They can be built anywhere except near another shrine. They provide resources like other improvements but their main purpose is spreading the Nation's Paganism Religion and enabling the Acolyte specialist. Each Shrine can only be built once unless the Polytheism law is passed.

Wonders of the World

Wonders of the World are powerful improvements that can only be constructed once. As soon as a Nation begins constructing a Wonder of the World other Nations cannot start it unless a hostile unit enters the tile of an unfinished Wonder of the World and destroys it. Not all Wonders of the World are available each game. They are chosen randomly at the start of each game. Most Wonders of the World require the City to reach a certain Culture Level before they can be constructed. Each Wonder of the World provides 2 Victory Points and cannot be replaced by other improvements.
