Even when you cannot build Barracks II by yourself, you may conquer a city with one.

I use v2.6 because it's the last version that works with a 32-bit processor. Last freeciv version with 32-bit Windows ("win32") builds available is 3.0. For other OSes 32-bit builds should still work even from development version. https://sourceforge.net/projects/freeciv/files/Freeciv%203...

The failing sanity checks seem like you have some unit or city that would see stealth ("invisible") units further away than non-stealth units. That makes no sense, and is not supported.

freeciv.org server is under extreme (relative to what it can handle) load, thanks to AI bots scraping information and spam bots.

Usually you can add an "user unit class flag" that you give to all ship classes, and then make the effect requirement to be that unit class flag instead of any single class.

There's quite a number of failing sanity checks after loading these, when sanity checking enabled in the freeciv server. You may want to build your freeciv with -Ddebug=true to check those.
