Holy Despot

I agree OIL is the most important! Once in an endgame on emperor it was just between me(China) and him(Persia).He had ICBM'S but he only lately found a source of oil and only had 6-7 tanks +mech infantry(I was backward and couldn't create nukes).I declared war,mobilized and created continuously tanks and mech infantry.He bombed me with nukes(all of them) in about turn 15 of the war without provocation.I recovered hard but all my cities were producing tanks and soon enough I had dozens of tanks+ mech infantry(work best in combination=attack+ defense).He still produced bombs and nuked me but his fate was sealed thanks to OIL.This is a classic example on how OIL beats uranium and tanks beat ICBM's.Also Tomoyo said the AI only uses Nukes if you use them.FALSE,I had no nukes and he nuked me but my tanks saved me and the world of OIL was mine!
