        There is also a patch in the archives somewhere (I came across it
once). It must be two years old or so by now though.

        I'm assuming you mean some kind of display of the statistics on
how many enemy units you've destroyed, and how many of your own units have
been lost. FreecivAC doesn't do this, and doesn't really add any code that
would make this any easier to implement (but it sounds fairly straightforward
to me).

        I think the CivII ruleset already "should" work with impr-gen,
unless the current effects are wrong. How does the Great Wall and
Leonardo differ anyway?

        Loss of population, IIRC. Andi Payn's patch includes some code
to implement this.

Should work with impr-gen, except for the slow-global-warming effect.
