Terrible prince player here with some dumb questions.
Is an even pop distribution stronger/weaker than an uneven one at a particular happiness cap? ex: (13...14...14...14) vs (20...15...10...10) vs (30...10...8...7)
I lean toward the 2nd case but am still learning.
When we start comparing different city numbers is there a strategy to analyze these factors and come to some helpful conclusions? I assume any detailed analysis would consider the spread or variance (from statistics) in addition to the familiar aspects like city connection gold, city specialization, etc,.
I get that the answer depends on map and overall strategy so maybe this line of thought is futile. If we restricted the discussion to Science Victory or Modern Era Domination push would that help find a general idea of "best practice"?
