Mars trying to conquer Earth is like one the life boats turning around trying to conquer the wreck of the Titanic.

Let that wreck lie and stare in to the bright new future rather than back at the lifeless husk of yesterday

Maybe we have, maybe they didn't answer, maybe we are crying on the inside and trying to put on a brave face...

But the formal answer is: That is a great idea and we should do so!

We really love that as well, and as you say it worked great in CK2.

Cities Skylines will not have events as such at release, we wanted to focus on making a really solid core game.

However, this is on top of our wishlist as something to add later to the game!

We are looking into something similar to Crusader Kings II and Europa Universalis IV; Major expansions together with a patches full of free stuff, and some minor dlc besides

What we are aiming at from start are modern looking cities, these are cities being built today. This means that the cities often will look a bit "American" or "Middle Eastern (think Dubai) as they are generally built more recently. But we are looking into adding more classical building, maybe something we will throw up in the Workshop?
