CONCEPT_CITIES={
Type="CONCEPT_CITIES";
Topic=[=[Cities]=];
Description=[=[Cities]=];
Summary=[=[{{LinkBE|Cities}} are vital to your colony's success. They are the site to build {{LinkBE|Units}}, {{LinkBE|Buildings}} and {{LinkBE|Wonders}}. They allow you to {{LinkBE|research}} new technologies and gather wealth, expanding your borders as they do so. You cannot win Beyond Earth without at least one secure, well-situated city. As the number of cities in your colony grows, your colony’s {{LinkBE|Health}} declines.
In other words, a colony with two cities each of population 1 is less healthy than a colony with one city of population 2, even though you have the same total population.]=];

CONCEPT_OUTPOSTS={
Type="CONCEPT_OUTPOSTS";
Topic=[=[Cities]=];
Description=[=[Outposts]=];
Summary=[=[An {{LinkBE|Outpost}} is, in a word, a proto-city: a small installation that is placed on the map and acquires territory like a city, but which does not yet have the advantages of a city. Outposts cannot produce {{LinkBE|Buildings}}, {{LinkBE|military}} {{LinkBE|Units}}, or {{LinkBE|Wonders}}, and cannot bombard enemy units. Outposts get exclusive rights to improve {{LinkBE|tiles}} within their territory, and to the yields those tiles produce, but Outpost territory does not restrict the {{LinkBE|movement}} of enemy military units.
Outposts have no {{LinkBE|ranged}} strike capabilities and a weak {{LinkBE|Combat Strength}}, and are destroyed rather than captured when they are overrun. Units may be garrisoned in them, and will conduct melee or {{LinkBE|ranged combat}} as usual.
The sole exception to the Outpost-phase of city creation is the player’s {{LinkBE|capital}} – the first city you build at the beginning of the game. The capital city is founded already complete; all subsequent “founding” actions produce Outposts.]=];

CONCEPT_WATER_CITIES={
Type="CONCEPT_WATER_CITIES";
Topic=[=[Cities]=];
Description=[=[Aquatic Cities]=];
Summary=[=[{{LinkBE|Aquatic cities}} work just like land {{LinkBE|cities}}, but with three key differences.
First, aquatic cities [COLOR_RED]do not grow with {{CultureIconBE}} {{LinkBE|Culture}}}}. They only claim the plots adjacent to the city when the city is founded. Instead, to claim new territory, aquatic cities require their second special ability:
{{ColorGreenBE|Aquatic cities can move.}} These cities float and can travel around the map. Whenever the city moves, it claims the {{LinkBE|tiles}} adjacent to its new location. This is how aquatic cities gain their territory. They can still buy plots with {{EnergyIconBE}} {{LinkBE|Energy}}, however.
Lastly, although aquatic cities do not grow with {{CultureIconBE}} Culture, they do produce 50% more {{CultureIconBE}} Culture towards unlocking new {{LinkBE|Virtues}}.]=];

Description=[=[Moving Aquatic Cities]=];
Summary=[=[To move an aquatic city, select the [COLOR_YELLOW]{{LinkBE|Move City}}}} project from the city's {{ProductionIconBE}} {{LinkBE|Production}} list, then select the plot you wish to move to. When the Move City project is complete, the city will move to the plot you chose.
There are some restrictions on where {{LinkBE|aquatic cities}} can move:
* You can only move to an adjacent plot. The plot must be shallow water ({{LinkBE|Coast}} {{LinkBE|terrain}}) until you {{LinkBE|research}} [COLOR_TECH_TEXT]{{LinkBE|Planetary Survey}}.}}
* You cannot move closer than 2 plots away from another City or {{LinkBE|Outpost}}.
* You cannot move onto an existing {{LinkBE|Station}} or Planetary {{LinkBE|Wonder}}.]=];

CONCEPT_FOUNDING_CITIES={
Type="CONCEPT_FOUNDING_CITIES";
Topic=[=[Cities]=];
Description=[=[How to Create More Cities]=];
Summary=[=[{{ColorPositiveBE|{{LinkBE|Cities}}}} come from {{LinkBE|building}} new {{ColorPositiveBE|{{LinkBE|Outposts}}}} and sheltering them until they grow into Cities.
Building an Outpost, the precursor to a City, is the sole action available to the {{LinkBE|Colonist}} {{LinkBE|unit}}. Building an Outpost consumes the Colonist. An Outpost may be founded anywhere on the map within these restrictions:
*The Outpost cannot be closer than 3 {{LinkBE|tiles}} to another City or Outpost
*The Outpost cannot be closer than 2 to a {{LinkBE|Station}}
*The Outpost cannot be established along the edge of the map
Once established, the Outpost starts with just one tile of claimed territory, selected from whichever unclaimed tiles adjacent to the Outpost’s location are judged most valuable. From its initial claimed tile, the Outpost will steadily claim all remaining, unclaimed tiles around it, similar to the way a land City’s {{LinkBE|Culture}} output will expand its territory. After all the tiles adjacent the Outpost are claimed -- whether by that Outpost or by another Outpost or City -- it will transform into a full City.]=];

Topic=[=[Cities]=];
Description=[=[Where to Found Outposts]=];
Summary=[=[{{LinkBE|Outposts}} become {{LinkBE|cities}} (with luck), and thus you need to give some thought to where you will place them. Cities should be constructed in locations with plenty of {{LinkBE|food}} and {{LinkBE|production}} and with access to {{LinkBE|resources}}. When founding on land, it is often a good idea to build a city on a {{LinkBE|river}} or {{LinkBE|coastal}} hex. Cities constructed on {{LinkBE|hills}} gain a defensive bonus, making it harder for enemies to capture them. When founding on water, access to a land coast is likewise beneficial, while deep water represents a good place to expand to once the {{LinkBE|technology}} to move the city there is {{LinkBE|researched}}.]=];

You can open the City Screen by clicking on {{LinkBE|the city banner}} on the Main Map. The City Screen allows you to “fine tune” your control over each city.

Summary=[=[A city’s owner may “garrison” a {{LinkBE|military}} {{LinkBE|unit}} inside the city to bolster its defenses. A portion of the garrisoned unit’s {{LinkBE|Combat Strength}} is added to the city’s strength. The garrisoned unit will take no damage when the city is attacked; however, if the city is captured the garrisoned unit is destroyed.
Only one {{LinkBE|combat unit}} may occupy a city at a {{LinkBE|time}}. That military unit is said to “garrison” the city, and it adds a defensive bonus to the city. Additional {{LinkBE|combat}} units may move through the city, but they cannot end their turn there.]=];

The {{LinkBE|production}} already expended on the original item is not applied to the new item; however, it remains “on the books” for a while and if you later order that city to resume {{LinkBE|construction}} on the original item, it may get the benefit of some or all of the earlier production.

Summary=[=[{{LinkBE|Units}} are built in {{LinkBE|cities}}. Each unit has a certain “{{LinkBE|Production}} Cost” which determines how many points of Production the city must expend to produce the unit. In addition, in order to construct a unit you must have {{LinkBE|knowledge}} of the requisite {{LinkBE|technology}} (you must know the “{{LinkBE|Physics}}” technology, for example, to construct a “{{LinkBE|Ranger}}” unit). Some units also require that your colony have access to certain {{LinkBE|resources}} to construct them (for instance, to build a “{{LinkBE|LEV Tank}}” you will need {{LinkBE|Floatstone}}).]=];

Only one of each Great Wonder may be constructed anywhere in the world: once one colony has constructed one, no other player may do so. Wonders will disappear from {{LinkBE|the City Build Menu}} once you can no longer construct them.
If another colony completes {{LinkBE|construction}} of a Great Wonder while you are {{LinkBE|building}} it, you will receive an {{LinkBE|Energy}} bonus as compensation, and you’ll have to begin construction on something else.]=];

Summary=[=[{{LinkBE|Cities}} thrive due to the land around them. Their citizens “work” the land, harvesting {{LinkBE|Food}}, {{LinkBE|Energy}}, {{LinkBE|Production}} and {{LinkBE|Science}} from the {{LinkBE|tiles}}. Citizens can work tiles that are within three tiles’ distance from the city and that are within your colony’s borders.

You need to build “{{LinkBE|Workers}}” to improve the lands. Once you have a Worker, you can order it to construct {{LinkBE|improvements}} – such as {{LinkBE|farms}}, {{LinkBE|mines}}, {{LinkBE|nodes}}, {{LinkBE|generators}} and so forth – that will make the land around your {{LinkBE|cities}} more productive.]=];

CONCEPT_CITY_COMBAT={

Topic=[=[Cities]=];
Description=[=[City Combat]=];
Summary=[=[{{LinkBE|Cities}} may be attacked and captured by enemy {{LinkBE|units}}. Each city has a “{{LinkBE|Combat Strength}}” which is determined by the city’s location, its size, whether any {{LinkBE|military}} units are “garrisoned” in that city, and whether defensive {{LinkBE|buildings}} such as a {{LinkBE|Defense Perimeter}} have been constructed in the city. The higher the city’s defensive value, the harder it is to capture the city.
Cities are important targets, and if fortified and defended by other units, can be quite difficult to capture. However, doing so can reap rich rewards – in fact, the only way to knock another colony out of the game is to capture or destroy all of its cities. Do this to enough opponents and you can win the game.]=];

Topic=[=[Cities]=];
Description=[=[Defending A City]=];
Summary=[=[{{LinkBE|Cities}} have a {{LinkBE|Combat Strength}}, just like {{LinkBE|units}}. The city’s Strength represents its {{LinkBE|Combat}} Strength and {{LinkBE|Ranged Combat Strength}}. During combat the city’s {{LinkBE|hit points}} may decline due to enemy attacks, but its Combat and {{LinkBE|Ranged Combat}} strengths remain equal to its initial strength — no matter how much damage the city has taken.]=];

Type="CONCEPT_CITY_CONQUERING";
Topic=[=[Cities]=];
Description=[=[Capturing A City]=];
Summary=[=[A fully-{{LinkBE|healthy}} city has 100 {{LinkBE|hit points}}. As it takes damage, the city’s hit points are reduced. When a city’s hit points reach “0,” an enemy {{LinkBE|unit}} may enter the city, regardless of any units already inside. When this occurs, the city is captured. The attacker usually has the option of destroying the city or adding the city to his colony, either as a puppet or directly through annexation.
When your unit enters an enemy city, you have three {{LinkBE|choices}}: you can raze the city, you can annex it and make it part of your colony, or you can make it into a puppet city. Each has its own benefits and costs.
If a city is captured, its {{LinkBE|buildings}} are captured as well, although these may not remain. The city’s {{LinkBE|culture}} and {{LinkBE|military}} buildings ({{LinkBE|defense perimeter}}, {{LinkBE|alien preserve}}, and so forth) are always destroyed when the city is taken.

While there are some valid reasons for razing a city, mostly to do with your population’s {{LinkBE|health}}, this extreme behavior does have significant diplomatic consequences – i.e., other colonies may be less likely to ally with you if they think you’re a bloodthirsty conqueror.

Summary=[=[If you annex the city, you make it a part of your lands. You have control over the city, just as if you had constructed the city yourself. The downside to annexation is that doing so makes your colony less {{LinkBE|healthy}}, and you will be required to construct health-related {{LinkBE|buildings}} (e.g. {{LinkBE|Pharmalab}}) or {{LinkBE|Wonders}} (e.g., {{LinkBE|Promethean}}) or connect to {{LinkBE|basic resources}} to {{LinkBE|counteract}} this decrease in overall health.

However, you do not control the city's {{LinkBE|production}}. It makes the {{LinkBE|buildings}} it chooses and it creates no new {{LinkBE|units}} or {{LinkBE|wonders}} at all. Thus you'll have to provide the {{LinkBE|military}} force for its defense, and if you want to make the city more efficient, you'll have to order your civ's {{LinkBE|Workers}} to improve its land.

A damaged unit is less effective when attacking than a fully-healed unit. The more damaged the unit, the less its attack – melee or {{LinkBE|ranged}} – will damage an opponent. The actual formula is more complex than this, but as a general rule a unit’s damage output is reduced by half the percentage of hit points that it has lost.

These different types of techs are called branches and leaves, and the overall paradigm is referred to as the "leaf pattern".
The leaf pattern changes the progression of technology from a linear, prerequisite-based traversal to an {{LinkBE|exploration}} of themes in general-to-specific direction.

This victory is geared toward the economy-focused player, and can be accomplished with any {{LinkBE|Affinity}}.
There are four steps to a Contact Victory: discovering The Signal, decoding The Signal, {{LinkBE|building}} the {{LinkBE|Beacon}}, and activating the Beacon.
To discover the Signal, the player has to complete 2 of the following actions:
- Complete the {{LinkBE|Transcendental Equation}} City Project.
- Launch a {{LinkBE|Deep Space Telescope}} {{LinkBE|orbital unit}} to reveal The Signal within a random number of turns.
- Investigate a {{LinkBE|Progenitor Ruins}} site with an {{LinkBE|Explorer}} on the map.
Decoding The Signal is accomplished by completing the {{LinkBE|Decode Signal}} City Project.
The Beacon is a Planetary {{LinkBE|Wonder}}. After The Signal is decoded, the Beacon Project will be unlocked and is buildable in any City. After the Beacon is built, the player may activate it by committing 1000 {{LinkBE|Energy}}. While the Beacon is running, it completely consumes the player’s global Energy surplus. The player can deactivate the Beacon at any {{LinkBE|time}} without loss of progress towards victory.
The Beacon requires a set amount of Energy to complete the victory. Each turn, it contributes the player's Energy surplus to this total. When the total is reached, the victory is achieved.]=];

There are three steps to an {{LinkBE|Emancipation}} Victory: {{LinkBE|contacting}} Earth, constructing the Emancipation Gate, and sending {{LinkBE|Military}} {{LinkBE|Units}} through the Emancipation Gate to establish order on Earth.
The only way to re-establish contact with Earth is to launch a {{LinkBE|Lasercom Satellite}} {{LinkBE|Orbital Unit}}.
The Emancipation Gate is a Planetary {{LinkBE|Wonder}}. After Earth is contacted, the player may build the Emancipation Gate in any City.
After the Emancipation Gate is constructed, the {{ColorSupremacyBE|Supremacy}} player uses it to establish control of Earth. They do this by committing Military Units of sufficient strength to the Gate – sending them through to Old Earth to be used as a “peacekeeping force.” To commit a unit to the effort, the player moves the unit onto the Emancipation Gate site and activates the Emancipation Gate’s transport ability. The unit is removed from play after being committed. Every turn, the player can commit only one unit to the Gate.
The {{LinkBE|Combat Strength}} value of each committed unit is added to the victory progress score. The victory is achieved by reaching a set amount of {{LinkBE|Combat}} Strength committed. The player does not lose progress if the Emancipation Gate is destroyed, but they cannot continue with an Emancipation victory until they construct a new Emancipation Gate.]=];

In this victory, the player constructs a Warp Gate (called the {{LinkBE|Exodus Gate}}) and brings the population of the dying Earth through to the planet to settle it as their new home – their {{LinkBE|promised land}}.
Steps to Promised Land:
There are four steps to a Promised Land Victory: {{LinkBE|contacting}} Earth, constructing the Exodus Gate, summoning {{LinkBE|Earthling Settlers}} with the Exodus Gate, and sheltering the Earthling Settlers.
The only way to re-establish contact with Earth is to launch a {{LinkBE|Lasercom Satellite}} {{LinkBE|Orbital Unit}}.
The Exodus Gate is a Planetary {{LinkBE|Wonder}}. After Earth is contacted, the player may build the Exodus Gate in any City.
Once the Exodus Gate Wonder is complete, the player may activate it once per turn to produce an Earthling Settler {{LinkBE|unit}}. These are special civilian units that represent citizens of Earth that need to be relocated on the planet. The player does this by settling them into {{LinkBE|Earthling Settlements}}.
Earthling Settlements are special {{LinkBE|improvements}}. They can be established anywhere on the planet’s surface, regardless of which colony controls the territory.
Once an Earthling Settlement has been established, new Earthling Settlers can be added to it up to a maximum of 6. Every Earthling Settler established in a Settlement counts towards the victory progress score as soon as it is settled.
Earthling Settlements have no {{LinkBE|combat}} abilities and are instantly destroyed when pillaged by a hostile unit. If an Earthling Settlement is destroyed, the Earthling citizens are lost and their population is deducted from the victory progress score. The settlement is replaced with ruins and the conquering player gains {{LinkBE|resources}} for the destruction.
To complete the victory, the player must safely settle a certain number of Earthlings. If the Exodus Gate is destroyed, you do not lose progress towards the victory but must construct another Gate to continue.]=];

All beings are {{LinkBE|united}} in “planetary nirvana” to live forever in perfect harmony.
There are three steps to a {{LinkBE|Transcendence}} Victory: {{LinkBE|contacting}} the Planet’s consciousness, creating the {{LinkBE|Mind Flower}}, and merging consciousness.
The first step for the {{ColorHamonyBE|Harmony}} player is to establish {{LinkBE|communication}} with the {{LinkBE|integrated}} consciousness of the planet. This is achieved by unlocking a series of Technologies that lead to the Mind Flower {{LinkBE|Wonder}}.
The Mind Flower is a Planetary Wonder unlocked by a late-game {{LinkBE|Technology}}. It is buildable in any of the player’s {{LinkBE|Cities}}.
Once a Mind Flower has been constructed, it will immediately begin a consciousness merge between the planet and the life forms that inhabit it. This takes some number of turns during which the indigenous life of the planet reacts to the process in dramatic, sometimes destructive ways.
The speed with which the Mind Flower can accomplish the victory can be enhanced by {{LinkBE|building}} {{LinkBE|Mind Stem}} and {{LinkBE|Xeno Sanctuary}} buildings in the player's cities. Each building built adds to the Mind Flower's completion rate.
As long as the player can protect the Mind Flower until the process is complete, the victory will be achieved.
If the Mind Flower is destroyed during the merging, the victory attempt fails. The player must construct another Mind Flower and restart the process to complete the victory.]=];

Aggressive {{LinkBE|Covert Operations}}:
If you are caught engaging in harmful {{LinkBE|covert operations}} in another colony’s city, your respect will be negatively affected. The degradation is proportional to the severity of the operation, whether or not it succeeded, and whether the other colony has a track record of covert aggression against any colony (not just you).

This activity can provoke a confrontation.
Aggression Towards Friendly Stations:
If you attack or destroy a Station that another colony was trading with, it will hurt the respect between the two colonies.
