    Do you mean move into a city - you nweed to be in the city information scroll that shows you how things like squalor level - in the bottom left corner theres an icon to click that zooms into to the city.

    Well CA said we'd be able to see gladiators in the arena & chariot races in the circus but I think its clear that they never implemented/completed it.
    I think we were supposed to be able to zoom in & see armies on the march too.
    Things I'd like to see in the expansion/1.3 patch #s 56,57 & 58...

    Re the original post, assuming this is starting within a battle, either use the mouse wheel or if (presumably) you don't have one of those, the / and * keys at the top of the number pad do it.
    Or do you mean the rarely mentioned quick zoom?
    I believe that is the Insert key.
    maybe those guys should be doing something more useful...
