Whatever happened to the trait for the guy who captured Syracruse? Is there something specific for it that needs met? I was counting on it to turn this guy into a decent general.

The only traits awarded for conquering Syrakousai are given to Hellenes and Carthage. None of them provide any bonuses whatsoever. What faction are you playing? Are you sure there used to be a trait for conquering Syrakousai that gave you bonuses?
I am reasonably sure the trait went to ANYONE who conquered the city. I always thought this was rather neat, and hoped it would be applied for a number of major cities in the game. About it giving bonuses, I thought it gave a +1 to command, though I'm less sure about that being in there. If not, I think it should, as the capture of Syrakousai was from my understanding a major achievement. I'm playing as Rome. Is Eperios a more fitting city for Syrakousai to defect to than the KH? I think in .74 that's who it went to. Which made sense to me, since KH is a allied city-state federation, while Eperios is just the one that established it, and would have probably cut off ties to it by then.Quote:

I've taken Syrakousai a few times in several different Qarthie campaigns in .74. At least the trait they get for it had no direct game effects, it was just neat. Ditto for taking Rome, IIRC.
The one the Gauls got for taking Rome gave +1 Influence, but that's about it.
We avoid giving bonuses to command whenever possible. Just taking a famous city is definitely not reason enough.Quote:
