It's a siege problem. If siege couldn't wipe out your cities so quickly and result in you having to restart from the begin with no help, I think the *could* be more aggressive. I say could because even if that changed at this point, I think the community as a whole wouldn't allow it to happen anyway.

What I am really against, isn't that people aren't aggressive. If they want to save their cities, thats perfectly fine. What I don't like, is that if a truly aggressive player comes, they will be teamed up against. If I attacked a player, I would get the whole world against me |
as long as no siege is used, i dont see much problem in attacking people of your own size... the problem is the abuse of siege

The thing is, what is this server had been a battleground from the start? With mass indiscriminate attacks and mass farming. Your cities being attacked on a regular basis. The current armies would be impossibly high, because no one has insanely large cities. |
the armies CAN NOT be impossibly high cause of the upkeep system, like cities cant limitless grow in size cause of the food management system......geez... this is different then your average mmo attacks rarely bring profit

Even so, around 12k pop is the optimal size for max gold income without going horribly negative in food. Maybe it's just me but I'd consider 12k to be pretty large.

The point of the build time being so long is to encourage people to buy and use prestige, so there's really no improvement to make there.

I agree with pixle - particularly for self-sufficient cities (with positive food income) having a lower population allows to you put taxes much higher which actually increases your overall gold income.

Substantial size is all relative. If this game was a war from the beginning, then the size required for a decent army would be much smaller.

True, a city does not have to be maxed out to be functional pixle, but when your gold per hour is based off of your towns total population, it is extremely hard to make any army of substantial size, unless you do have a large city. f
