	How do you get rid of a city? Remove this text

Realizing that this incredible and unrealistic rate of corruption is something done on purpose by those a-holes at Firaxis, I will attempt to circumvent it. However, having a negative budget and over 60 cities already (I'm estimating) by conquoring a couple of nations on my continent, I'm in a bit of trouble. I would like to salvage this game, even though it looks like conqouring the world through military conquest isn't possible anymore on a standard size map, I will attempt to win by space age. I am already way ahead of everyone else technologically, I only need to know how to get rid of a lot of these excess cities. How do I get rid of a city that I've already conquored, spilled money into, even routed luxuries to and have my citizens completely happy (and yet, still only 1 production unit is available, challenge my ass, that's just plain stupid). These cities have already reached size of 12 and I hope I won't have to keep building settlers.

Well, aren't you just a little sassy

the only way to get rid of cities without razing them is to give them away.

Jut give them away. You can then reconquer them at your leisure, then raze them.

I have a peace treaty with everyone, and barbarians no longer conquor cities. You're telling me there's no way to get rid of a city I already have? What would the point be to playing on a huge map anyway?

No, he is telling you that you can give them to another civ.

Enough room for 16 civs.

The shocking rate of corruption you describe, among other things,
was meant to counter ICS.

Are You still using your old civ 2 strategies? The civ 3 game
mechanics are different with greater emphasis on single city
development and infrastructure than simply sprawling to victory.

Does anyone know if a high culture rating combats corruption?

In fact MILITARY VICTORY, is possibile. Not all cities have enormous corruption, but it is more difficult.

Perosnallty, I think that WASTE PRODUCTION from corruption should be toned down, so you could have large empire wich a decent production, but stagnating scxience & economy (is USSR sound familiar).

Other alternative would be a small empire with great economy & science but a low production, becouse of small number of cities compated to big empires.

Getting rid of a city
remove all workers from fields, make them tax collectors
Build settlers
disband city

	Put an end to popups!

You cannot build a settler if the pop. is less than 3. I tried.
