The drafting code does not check ownership of the city, and allows allows the npc to draft and even garrison troops from the other nation's city. The update even counts the other nation's troops in that city and adds to the army there when calculating troop strength reports for the scoreboard. This should be easy to fix though. Inflation is wrong, IMHO. Instead of the loss being gold x inflation / 100 it should be gold x inflation / (100 + inflation) since a 100% inflation means that your money is now worth half of what it was before.
