Re: My Homeland is Foreign?
Mmmmh... what about an undestroyable building that gives the penalty to everyone but gives an equal bonus to the starting faction if they own the settlement?Originally Posted by MarcusAureliusAntoninus
I've seen some of the unique buildings give bonuses to specific factions, so I think this should be possible... never modded buildings though, so I'm not sure.
Even better, give the penalty to everyone except the starting faction (cleaner solution), but I don't know if this is possible.

Whilst it might be your homeland all those other holders would have moved their own people in. Military settlers/veterens etc. I just roleplay it.
Lets face it the system isn't perfect (sorry to the EB gods - but CA didn't allow you total freedom) so you just grin and think hey I'll pretend............

To the shark and the sheering gull.

Building somewhere for a governor to hang out in greatly cut the culture penalty, as well as persuading the inhabitants to remodel their homes in the Greek style.

Re: My Homeland is Foreign?
does it just take time for the culture penalty to go down, as more of your people move in? or does it drop when you build specific culture buildings such as the festival buildings or theatres if your the greeks?

Re: My Homeland is Foreign?
The culture penalty dropped from 3 to 1 little black and white masks when the governor's mansion was finished. At the same time, the look of town changed from barbarian to Greek on the map. Of course, I'd had it under my control for long enough to build a homeland government plus the mansion, so what ~14 turns? It might have happened anyway.

It will go down when you destroy or upgrade buildings that were built by a different culture.
Re: My Homeland is Foreign?
As Elmetiacos implies, the governor's residence is the most important one for culture penalty.

Temple buildings are also significant.
RTW, 167 BC: Rome expels Greek philosophers after the Lex Fannia law is passed. This bans the effete and nasty Greek practice of 'philosophy' in favour of more manly, properly Roman pursuits that don't involve quite so much thinking.
