anarres, you have a point here. I still consider OCP and Palace Jump to be a 'feature' and exploit but it is impossible to enforce. It's just that I hate to use these features because I want to play in the spirit of the game. I am forced to play differently because of the fact that Civ Fanatics find loopholes in the gameplay. Sure, a palace should appear when your capital is taken, but I really don't think it was intenended to serve the palace jump purpose.

I for one hope that Firaxis fixes these things. FWIW I never used Ship Hopping and Palace Jump.

I don't think that OCP, ICS can be called exploits at all. Mass Upgrading, Pre-build are a grey area to me.
