Max. number of captured workers?
What was the max. number of workers you have ever captured taking a city ? (in the same turn, from only one city, no city razings)
I coquered a city from the aztevs that had 17 workers in it!! I was stupid enough to take the city with my last moving unit so next turn they took it back and I had to watch the animation again. Next turn I took the city again and had to watch the damn animation with all the 17 pesky workers surrendering once again! BAAHH !!!

wow!! 17 workers!!! 
When I capture 4 is a great thing for me... 
I supose you have captured this high number of workers because the aztec civ was very tiny, and when you've declared war on them, all workers run to one or two cities. I'm right?

No, actually they were the most powerful civ. They eliminated 2 or 3 other civs and they had about 40% or 50% of the map. Of course, this was before they attacked me

I forgot to mention: Standard map, 8 civs, me: persians, everything else random. The map: one big continent and 2 smaller ones.

Don't know what /if the limit is, but I do not recall capturing more than 7-8 workers.

Got nine once from the Iroquois but its usually 2 or 3 I tend to disband them in the city to rush temple if I get loads.
