Description
Situated in South-Eastern Cairo, Egypt, the Cairo Citadel is a large fortification constructed by the Sultan Saladin in 1183 CE, in order to protect the cities of Cairo and Fustat from Crusaders. It took five years to construct, and when completed served as the seat of Egyptian government from Saladin's Ayyubid caliphate until the 19th century. Ingame, the Cairo Citadel provides +10% combat strength when fighting in Desert terrain and +25% when attacking a city. Engineering is required to build it.

Requires either expansion pack, and credit to co-author Sukritact for the icon

Qalaʿat Salāḥ ad-Dīn would be a more accurate name

Good mod, good balance, good picture description. But I would make it 25% when attacking a DESERT city.

increase the desrt warfare to 20%. Heavily boost the defences of cities on or beside deserts

I've just checked and it is 25%. Keep in mind though that 25% is not what it used to be - siege weapons have 200% against cities, and the Siege promotion that can be chosen by Melee units is 50%, so it's only half as good as that

Is the combat bonus against cities 15% or 25%? The ingame description on the screenshots say 15% but in you wrote 25% in your workshop description. Maybe just a typo but i feel that 25% would be too much
