The kitten approves of this addition to the game

BETTER would have been a severe limit to the size of a city built on a mountain...due to lack of flat building space, the trouble of getting stuff there and the lack of water on top of a mountain. ETC cos my point can develop on its own...

Mountainous cities that spring to mind are generally INCA cities...and a bunch of smelly spainards took them out (I am in Spain as I type!).

Put an end to popups!

In civ2 mate on the world.mp the mountains where the alps, some in norway, caucacus etc...not really know for their massive cites.

Virtually all cities are coastal and/or on a river...not stuck oin a hill with limited building space...the difficulty of transporting stuff up their for trade etc.

You just want to keep your multiplaying mountain cities...

didnt see the mountain it was only in one square and the city covered it. didnt even stop to think of doing a REVEAL HIDDEN TERRAIN..

It was horsey that attacked me first though so i keep my spotless reputation ofr never starting a war.!!!

Well I learned one thing, never attack horses citys called Lofty, it should hav ebeen a give away that it was built high up.!!!!

Wasnt until horse told me tha ti realsied why my vet army all died attacking his town and his army walked right through my city.

Lucky i was only playing for fill time.... PHEW!!!!

Must remember to give any mountain cities I build soothing lowland names like "The Plains". Especially if they are on a solitary mountain surrounded by flatland. LOL!
