What is Etherization?

Etherization is a civilization like game on Ethereum blockchain, written in Solidity, due to gas limits per block split in 3 contracts. Players add or withdraw ether to their treasury; by playing well they can increase it and make profit. It is possible to increase treasury by capturing other players' cities or by developing their own cities and taking a cut in other players' actions through production buildings. Before making the next move, players have to wait a fixed period of time, currently set to 30 minutes.
There are 3 units types and 5 building types. When any player builds a unit or a building, owners of this building type get a cut of the cost. For example: production building for pikemen unit type is woodworks. If there are 2 players in the world that have this building, they will each receive 50% of the pikemen cost that the player who built the unit paid. Quarry brings a cut on building construction. Farm brings a cut on unit maintenance (when a player builds a new unit, he pays maintenance cost on his all other exisiting units). Woodworks is pikemen production building, metalworks for swordsmen, and stables for horsemen. Each unit type has its strengths and weaknesses: pikemen are strong against horsemen, but weak against swordsmen; swordsmen are strong against pikemen, but weak against horsemen. When moving units or attacking cities, source and destination cities need to be neighbours - their indexes cannot be more than 3 apart; ie it is not possible to attack city with index 7 from a city with index 2.
Here are the basic instructions on how to play it.
