Perdan's Capital Change

[Indirik]

I thought that's what all the hubbub was about. Can someone else clarify if Perdan is currently at war with Ibladesh?

Oh yes. Perdan is *definitely* at war with Ibladesh. And yes, we moved our capital while we were at war with Ibladesh,

Some of the confusion may be from a related blurb of text that can appear when you try to move your capital. If there has been a battle or unrest in either your current capital, or the proposed new capital, you can get an error message something like "can't move capital due to war or unrest". This is not the diplomatic state of war, it is referring to recent battles in one of the two cities.

I thought you moved it before the war. But thanks for the clarification, I did not know that.

Not sure is everyone is aware--moving your capital drops production 50% in both cities, and possibly ALL your regions. It will also have a large affect on control.

So it's not something to be taken lightly, and it's not easy to pull off in the middle of a war. Ilbadesh could (and should have) take the opportunity to launch an all-out attack on the new capital.

That's one thing we were worried about.

Oddly enough, recruiting is completely unaffected by a capital move.  I had the option to recruit immediately after moving the capital. Probably something that should not be allowed for a day or two?

I agree here. I thought recruits were physically present in the capital since you can find them only there, and that explains why disconnected regions can't send recruits there. A capital move means all the recruits should move so they should need some time to do it.

Either suspend recruitment for a couple days or just erase all the recruits and give perhaps an increase ratio of regional recruitment for some days to compensate.

That's not true, either, though it probably should be.
