So I'm playing a game on the NZ map (mod) as Catherine on King difficulty, standard speed. Aiming for a science victory and doing not as well as I was hoping for; NZ map honestly isn't the best map in the world.
So down south is Germany. A while back, I got a pop up saying Germany had 74 techs, while I had 64. Of course this is where I realise that I probably won't win this game as he is way to far away from me to properly try and stop a science victory, but I play on anyway to see what happens. Germany goes onto finish 2 boosters, the cockpit and the chamber by turn 334, while I've only just finished the cockpit. On the same turn as the chamber, he also produces the UN and the polls show 15 votes. Crap now he's looking at a diplomatic win too. Then I look at victory progress and he's sitting at 4/5 social policy branches, the highest in the game.
How in the world is this possible, even for an AI, and not even on a super high difficulty?
For reference, he has 21 cities, while I'm sitting on 6 and a puppet all around 12-20 pop and the puppet on 1 ( location, only keeping it for the gold lux)
