I would find that odd. Finishing a building already damaged doesn't make any sense. Furthermore I think it is good that the enemy can prevent you from building. Otherwise it is too easy to build a fortress or towers to defend yourself.

This isn't already a thing? Could have sworn it is...

In 0ad, units can attack enemy foundations which prevents them from being built. This tends to limit the use of buildings. We could also let foundation damage impact the HP of the complete building instead of affecting construction time (as in AOE2), or increase the durability of foundations for a more hybrid approach (more difficult to deny buildings, but not impossible). thoughts?

Yeah, in DE, capturing has been modified quite a bit. So, the more Civic Centers you build or capture, the less loyalty they have. It's called the 'Public Order Penalty.' As the empire grows, your Civic Centers are less loyal, essentially. It's part of self-balancing I'm trying out, to see if I can reducing snowballing. Building Temples and capturing Shrines reduces this effect with the 'Public Order" bonus. This is all crucial, because most other buildings have their capturability removed, except the Civic Center. Capturing the Civic Center is the primary focus.
