Cultural Defection in Civ1 Support Apolyton, buy Alpha Centauri


The announcement of Colonization II has sent me on one of my frequent retro-gaming trips and I am currently playing Civilization I. In my last game I had that "Citizens of City A admire the prosperity of City B" message which causes city A to defect to city B's civilization. In this case the city defected between AI civs, so the message could have been about a successful subversion. However, I strongly remember a city once defecting to me without any diplomatic action on my part, so this must have been an early form of the cultural defection that was officially introduced in Civ3. It is not documented in the manual and a (cursory) glance at this site's FAQ has failed to bring up any details. Was the mechanism behind this feature ever revealed?

I think it's only diplomatic intervention that causes it. There simply wasn't any cultural mechanism in those games.

I suppose you are right. My memory was probably playing tricks on me. After 16 years of various civ versions, it's easy to mix things up.

I believe you're correct, actually, Verrucosus. I think it had to do with score/wonders or whatnot, not just diplomatic intervention.

i distinctly remember a completely spontaneous defection by a foreign city to join my empire - across an ocean, no less - in civ 1. damnedest thing.
