That's so kewl! Love how you played this 'political' game against your friend behind his back ;) I am sure he'll be thrilled to hear about it ^_^

What kind of armies to you usually place in those garrisons? what size? And yes, garrisons sprinkled across your empire are necessary now. AI is much smarter and would use guerilla warfare to weaken you before they deliver the final blow. Makes attacking/defending a lot more interesting...
