Is it a terrible idea to build Forbidden City?

I chose Chinese, Stonehenge, and Forbidden City, and I am at level 39 in Medieval age. I immediately realized I made a terrible mistake of constructing Forbidden City.

Basically I was robbed all the time. Since I have good walls, no one can wipe out my defenses. Therefore I was constantly attacked. Everyone can just stole from one market, but they come one by one, and I keep losing money without getting a peace treaty.

Please provide suggestions?

I am thinking of loosening up my defenses so the first attacker can actually win and give me a peace treaty.

The other idea is to try to "reset" and choose Japanese with other wonders instead of Forbidden City.

Please help...

Forbidden city is good for end game when you want to keep your medals.

Yeah. Forbidden City is not very useful when you are a developing nation. Notre Dame would be a better choice.

Being Chinese and having built the Forbidden City, can you confirm if you Town Center defenders also spawn from the Forbidden City when attacked? Someone told me they did but they asked me the same question the next day. If that's true, then FC becomes much more valuable to Chinese players.

As far as I know it, the Forbidden City is just another building that enemies will need to destroy to claim the City Center star, and if put in the right spot of your city, will just make impossible the quick victory star.

Apart from that, nothing else. No extra defenders coming from there for chinese and no ranged attack to japanese.

It's sad because unless you want to play like a medal-keeper since the beginning (in detriment of economic bonuses), the building is plain useless, and for now you cannot change your wonder nor build the ones from the previous ages.

u definitely get punished for choosing the fc until u start fighting for medals. and then ur rewarded. so u have to be thinking really really long term to benefit.
