	Cultural Assimilation in PBEM Games Browse Apolyton AD-FREE

What effects will it have on human-human relations?

If an ally gets the choice to assimilate a city of mine and he accepts, i'm definitely going to be pissed. But then, according to the game rules this is not a hostile action so at least legally it's ok.

What do you think? Should it be considered as a hostile action and even a casus belli, or should we just accept it as a legitimate action between nations that has no political repercussions?

	Support Apolyton, buy Civilization 2

In a game, why would it be anything but a case by case situation?

I've been wondering though, what historical situation are cultural conversions supposed to reproduce?

If he would be an ally of mine I would certainly hold it as an act of war. What I would do depends on the cirrcumstances of that time.

If you are stupid enough to build a new city next to or int the border of a culture powerhouse then its your own stupid fault. More generally if you neglect your culture then don't complain when it comes back to bite you.

I don't think there should be any repercussion. If you don't accept the assimilation that should be praised as benevolence.
