Thanks, I'll lookfor that patch. Good to hear that there is a NoCD, as
I prefer that anyway - would rather not have to handle CDs all the
time, or hunt for CDs borrowed by my kids.

Y'know, that... just... makes absolutely NO SENSE at all!
However it is completely consistent with my experience in the game, so
I am sure that you are right - even if it makes NO SENSE AT ALL.
So even if I am playing Viking raiders on a hit and run, I have to
declare war before moving units into enemy territory? Arg!
I guess what makes it even more confusing is the poor scripting, where
the AI blathers on about ROP violations even when there was no ROP.

OK, thanks. So I guess in my Viking scenario, after I've gotten my
loot from a city I need to offer it as a gift back to the original
owner, so that he can build more treasure there so I can come back and
raid it again 50 years down the line. *g*
Thanks for the info!
