City Defense - An idea/question/poll
When i defend a city, i like to think that the people i am defending would rather be in my empire than under the conquerors. If this is the case, especially if there is good public order, i would like to see my army bolstered by peasants and town guards when i am defending, loyal townspeople coming out to defend their freedoms and liberty.
Is this possible? Can you mod the game to add units to your army during a siege so you can better defend the city? Does anyone care?
Opinions/Flames please.

I think this is still a bit ambigous, I think you should get more people depending on loyalty. Maybe 1 units of peasants for every 20% of loyalty above 120. In addition to this, you should get Tower bonuses for every 30% of loyalty above 100%.

It would be nice but only if the town really is loyal. OTOH, if it's a recently conquered city and the populace is still in unrest then they should instead turn against you and try to open the gates to the enemy. Especially if the invaders are of the same faction that used to hold the city before you.
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.
