Gentler Razing

"Furthermore, I consider that razing Carthage would require a lot of time. Like, a lot. It's a big city."
— Cato the Censor (234–149 BC)

This mod changes the way settlement razing works by making the raze action only remove 1 level from the settlement (if it's not a level 1 settlement). So if a level 2 settlement gets razed, it gets downgraded to level 1. You still lose all the secondary buildings except ports. With multiple armies (since razing costs all movement points) it's possible to raze the same settlement in the same turn (but the vanilla gold sacking penalty still applies).

This obviously has big repercussions on the game, but it would require a lot more playtesting from me to tell you what those are. If this sounds interesting, try it out and provide feedback.

With the Mod Configuration Tool you can change how much levels the settlement loses when it gets razed from the default 1.

This is a 100% script mod, it's compatible with literally everything.
Should work in Multiplayer.
