    No, I meant I was going to demolish my non-ToC temples to build ToC temples in their place. Currently, I only have the ToC temples in the Italian peninsula and the surrounding areas (all near my capital). Should I demolish my ToC temples and build Jupiter temples instead?

    I like to have a mixture of Romanii temples, it doesn't do to anger the gods, though Jupiter tends to be most common. Also I want my FM's to be able to do the grand tour and pick up traits.

    Yes, so so now. I would encourage everyone else do the same, except for the corruption-free cities of course. I realized this in about 260 BC, and I used process_cq and add_money cheats to switch most of my temples. I know that was cheating, but I really did not feel like tearing down all those expensive temples and building new ones, which takes time too.

    Default AW: Favorite Temples?

    EB is best played role played.

    ... that means, I role play my temples. Pella of course has a (Wonderous since 197!) Temple of Zeus-Olympos, and I build them also in other settlements due to their big law bonus. I like the Dyonisos temples for far away settlements because the give you some unbeatable 50% happiness. For trading cities I like Hermes, of course, and Hera is nice for some very special cities in the core of your empire which offer outstanding recruitment. Herakles is a bit underwhelming in my opinion, after all there is no bonus upgrade from lvl 3 to lvl 4, so I limited this to some Thracian settlements due to roleplaying. Finally Asklepieos, well, seldom - it just doesn't appeal much to me. Cities are already very big in EB / RTW.

    That is a matter of opinion, thank you very much. I do some roleplaying, but not very much. However, to tell you the truth, considering the level of EB's unprecedented historical accuracy, roleplaying does seem like the best/most appropriate thing to do.
