And what's that supposed to prove? Depending on difficulty settings, a skilled player can beat the AI in just about any strategy game with any race, faction, or nation.
exactly right that is just one game. just like in street fighter where matches are predetermined before the match based on testing of matches based on both players being equally skilled.
just because you are playing on immortal doesn't mean anything. the difficulty you chose is based upon your skills to play on that difficulty.
i am currently playing on noble because i have like 1 month of civ experience. however weither it's your game on immortal or my game on noble and both our games have arabia in it, it doesn't change the odds of arabia winning.
let's say arabia who is "weak" only wins say 20% of the time that means out of 10 games arabia will win 2 games and lose 8 games. now say japan who is "godlike" they are suppose to win say 80% of the time. so in 10 games japan is suppose to win 8 times and lose 2 games.
now yes there are those few games where both japan and arabia will swap in percentage odds but hey that is what percentage odds are there for. percentage odds are there to give you an idea of where this civ you plan on playing with is ranked based on odds on winning. and odds of winning are based on your individual skill as a player in civ and then based on the civ you pick. you can play 2 games exactly alike with 1 game with japan and the other with arabia and you will see that if you follow both civs exactly the same your score and score lead will be totally different in both games.
>Arabia and Glorious Communist Siam in "Low" tier.
Oh, you.
Although I must agree, the Iroquois are generally complete garbage.
I based my tier list by just looking at each civ's uniques and compared each civ to the other 18, taking into account if one civ has only 2 early game uniques while another had 1 early game uniques and 1 mid/late game unique and giving the civ with 1 early and 1 mid/late unique priority over the 2 early unique civ if he has a better ability than the 2 early unique civ's ability.
And by some weird coincidence last night on my first game i picked japan playing on noble. playing on a small map (6 civs). i have aztec, india, ottoman, songhai, and 1 unmet civ and i am the score leader. so yeah i put my tier list before i remember about my game and oddly enough my tier list actually matches my game. and if that wasn't enough to justify; me, arabia, and ottoman are at war with songhai. and that was with me making a pact of cooperation with each one within just turns of each other and they came asking me not the other way around.
