Rebalancing Civ4: RtR Mod

When a hopy city is destroyed, maybe it should move to another city with the same religion, if available?

Who would get the holy city, if more than 1 person had a city with that religion? Why should a player not pay the price of losing cities?

Why is it a necessary change?

It is chosen randomly.

Losing a holy city removes too many elements from the game.

So what you're saying is that someone can get a holy city worth over 100gpt (if they get a prophet)...because of luck?

The only thing it removes is that the owner of the holy city loses the ability to gain shrine income. That's it. The religion is still present in the game, unless it's a really early raze, but that's no different to Islam never being relevant. Same problem with razing wonder cities, that removes something form the game but it's a consequence of a players decisions.

Because of somebody's decision to raze and luck.

A holy city spreads religion too.

Speaking of Islam, maybe make the founder get 1 free missionary in every city?

If you want to go down that line of reasoning, maybe wonders should be teleported once a city falls, maybe population is resettled in your cities etc.

It's simply part of the game, none of these are reasons to actually change it.

Ok. Forget about the holy city thing. But why not improve Islam?
