I think they should be able to build cities in mountains.

Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

I say the only difference between the Inces and the rest, in the normal game, is that they'll be agricultural - Industrious, and they'll have their UU (Chasqui Scout ? I don't remember...). That's all.

Because of the terrace farming. Terrace farming will be a major feature of the precolombian scenario, and I assume Firaxis needs nothing more to decide a trait.

Exactly. This is why they should be able to build cities in mountains, because they knew how to farm on the mountains. Or at least they should be able to get food from mountain squares...

building cities on mountains would be too great an advantage IMO. as for getting food from mountain squares, maybe that's part of the agricultural trait?

That would actually be a smart attribute for the agriculturals... Yet, I imagine more an agricultural Civ being more at home in great plains / grasslands, rather than in mountains.
Maybe terrace farming will make it to the general game. That sure would be way cool

The Incas actually did build cities in the mountains though. Need I point out Machu-Pichu?

yes yes they did... but would they be getting the defensive bonus of a mountain too? cause they didn't seem to be too successful in defense...

Isn't the US going to be agricultural industrialist?

Of course, they could both be it...

I don't think that the Inca's should have the ability to build cities on mountains. The defense bonus would be to great an advantage. I would be okay with an irrigation function that served for terrace farming and produced one food however.
