[0.80] City captured without fight

from Stardock Forums

I've just had one of my cities captured by an ennemy without any fight (and without any visible army on the map).

I had one defending unit inside, and this unit was removed from the city and left outside.

Since there was no ennemy unit inside, my unit was able to take my city back without any fight but that's wired.

After that, the game kind of froze : I was not able to press "Turn" so I had to load a save.

Not sure if it's a bug or if some wizard ennemy would have a spell that is able to take cities without fight...

there IS a spell that kraxis has that can flip a city to them, and eject all stationed units at the same time, but it usually switches the side on the receiving end to automatically declare WAR the spell costs 500 gildar (in lh, but in fe it is 500 prestige).

Sounds like that spell needs a special popup for the player when it is used on them.

Might I also suggest that the cost of the spell be changed to 200 gold per level of the city? That way your stronger cities have some protection.

this happened to me as well - Kraxis took over my only city about 5 turns after the game started and i had to go take it back. this shouldnt be allowed. they didnt even have any units near me. it took me about 75 turns to finally find their territory and lay waste for their indiscretion!
