After that, the population on Sidon will be decreased by 5000hab.

That way you don't have to massacre them, they just "disappear". Much more humane.

Much more stalinist.

Thank You for Your time and such detailed replies. Now I will solve this problem for sure.

I guess it is not too polite to say such things especially to a russian.

I'm sure he didn't mean to offend you. Anyway to solve your problems you could send in a governor with a god like influence (not to hard to come by, really) and a master spy as well. If you won't let your inhabitants dissapear, you could always add them back somewhere else. Then they've just moved to your fine city of ... Haven't they?

queue up as many of the cheapest, largest units you can buy (akontisti at 120 men a unit?) and then use the 'process_rq Sidon' cheat to build them all at once. Ship them to somewhere else and disband them. Hey presto - instant colonists! With a queue of 10 units, thats 1200 'colonists' a turn, or more if you use giant unit settings. Of course you can only use the cheat once each time you load the game, so you may need to reload a few times before you have a low enough population...

what do you mean? you can use a cheat as many times as you want... that was an old 1.2 thing.

Interesting. I think I'll do exactly as You advise

Also interesting but unfortunately I can't hire any field units right after capturing Sidon. There are only ships available which are costly.
Thanks for great solutions, guys
