	Defensive Bonus for Capital City? Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

I recall past discussions about the capital having an additional defensive bonus.

Is this true, and if so, how much is it?

50%, IIRC.

And is this true regardless of size?

For example, a fortified Spearman in a capital city size 7, on grassland behind a river would have defensive bonuses of 25% + 50% + 50% + 10% + 10%? Total defensive rating of 4.9?

I didn't check it out completely, but I think you're right. In any case, I believe it is a 50% bonus in addition to whatever other bonuses your capital's defenders may receive.

It did seem like my Knights were taking more damage attacking that Indian Capital than a similar sized non-captial. (Didn't lose any because the defenders were Spearmen, worst result in that series was a couple of retreats)

In advanced levels, its just the same. I simply canīt understand why my impressive veteran marines fell one by one to a single regular mech-infantry in a Zulu non-capitol city. If MY troops had a REAL defense bonus for mi capitol...
