    Its entirely up to which city I conquer. Whenever I conquer a city of different culture, I exterminate, and then destroy their temple. (With Julii, I always exterminate Gaul cities). If Im conquering a city of the same culture (like when Im Carthage and take Numidian city, or Roman House).

    However, I like to "kinda role-play". When a faction attacks me, I always exterminate their cities and desecrate their temples as a revenge

    When I take a low-population city, I usually enslave, or I enslave when my cities just need some more hundreds to reach the next city level.

    I find that occupying enemy cities just gives trouble later on, while exterminating gives you 20-40 turns of peace until unrest starts.

    Oh...any city that revolts, automatically makes it to my Exterminate list.

    And some cities like Pergamum, Halicarnassus and Corduba I always exterminate when I take it, as they are VERY prone to revolt.

    Isn't slavery and extermination immoral.

    Since they took away the POW's to kill in the game I'm kinda forced to exterminate to get the filthy pleasure of killing POW's during a battle.

    I generally like to exterminate when i'm going to war on multiple fronts and i'd like to cut one of my enemies down a few pegs. Usually I blitz towards a major city in the enemy territory and after that I can deal with whatever they can muster with a well rounded garrison while I refocus my efforts towards another front.

    There should some amendment on the enslavement/extermination
    my recommendation:

    >>>Enslavement>Extermination
