An ally captured one of my cities in conquest.
I suspected this as it happened several times over the past week but I actually saw it happen just now. An enemy troop hit my empty city to city hp = 0. Then an allied troop captured it.

If so, the latter, then i think it's an intentional feature by easytech. Needs to be confirmed tho, since it may be an isolated incident. |

The reason I left the city empty was because I knew there was only one enemy infantry troop around it and the city had some defense - I knew the enemy wouldn't be able to capture it in one turn. My ally however... |

Why is this so unusual?
Of course,allied units will capture any unguarded city under attack,
If you want to keep a city,put at least aux infty there.

My ally however... TRUE one nation conquer really a unguarded city and city fortif 0. It happened twice in my conquest. 1. Carthage defeated our ally in sicily 2. I see roman republic (my enemy) lost a city from its ally. ”you have been slain by your allies.” ”traitors indeed.” |

It can happen the other way too, you can take your allies' cities.
AI doesn't seem to care if there's a forest with a trench to gain the advantage, if it's a plain that will benefit little or if it's your city they're stepping in.
I think that's fine, nasty but understandable. If the order is you>enemy>ally>enemy and the first enemy clears the city, him capturing it can prevent the other enemy from taking it.
What I don't like is when you capture a city and your ally is stepping on a building, it will not become yours once he leaves (best scenario next turn) meaning you will be at least 2 turns without that building. If it's a Economic Area or Population Area it sucks the most, as with barrack you can train a troop once you retake it so its not that turn fully wasted.

An ally capturing one of your cities in a hot battle zone is never good. They will almost always lose it shortly after. In all previous games, you could take your allies' cities but your allies would never step into your empty ones. This is why I assumed it a bug. And again, if it is intended, it is just very annoying. |

Have also had my citys taken by allies as they move through the area. But hey, we can steal ally cities so it seems fair lol. |

In ew6, you could simply put down a crapper militia unit for 50 gold and it would take a lot of effort for the ai to kill it. Now in gcr, the most you can typically do is light infantry and they get rekt in a round. How I miss the good old days |

For Caesar's time, the just swarm you if you don't attack first. Being defensive most of the time will just lead to a loss. Game was designed for the player to actively take initiative. In EW6 you can just sit back and let the ai do the work, just donate to them  |
