I've seen people mention gaining techs from civs that they're at war with? How do you do this? The only thing I've seen is to offer them a peace treaty in exchange for tech, and I don't want a bloody peace treaty. I want to kill them off and finish my war so I can switch civics and catch my economy back up. The last thing I want to do is extend my "war mode" another 10 turns.
Also, while I'm thinking about it. What purpose does a peace treaty serve? Supposedly it lasts 10 turns, but I've attacked before the treaty ran out. Do you take a diplomatic hit with other civs or something? And what's the difference between peace treaty and cease-fire?
