In general, when playing on King, is it worth giving up techs to keep peace if you're going for a tech victory? My gut reaction is no, but maybe the turns of peace are a better use of resources than building defensive units to hold my cities.
Specifically, I'm playing my first game on King. I'm the Americans. I'm racing up the tech tree as fast as I can, trying to get to factories. The Japanese and I keep trading the lead in tech. Meanwhile the Zulus and French keep taking turns pounding on me. So far they keep attacking across the river and I'm holding them off, but legion armies are starting to show up and I just started researching gunpowder.
Thoughts? Opinions? Cold, hard statistical analysis? Thanks in advance for any and all,
Eric
