Hey I have now played 3 games on King difficulty and I know that's not enough but I'm not as dominant as I was on Prince. I used to easily be ahead of the best AI Civ by at least 200-300 points, now I always have one AI that is at least 300 points ahead of me. I feel like they are getting an advantage of some sort that i can't change no matter how well I play, I used to think that it was because I played a game with at least 16+ other civs on a Huge map but the current game I am in is making think otherwise.. For example I am currently playing as Mongolia for the Game of the Month (TSG28) from couple months ago which had only 8 civs and I think a standard map. I am far better than any other Civ in the scenario except Rome who is about 350 points ahead, and the latest ingame poll showed civs with the pointiest stick and rome not only had 4X better Military score than me they also had more GPT, more advanced milittary and probably more CPT. I find the game a bit too easy on Prince. But I find it a bit too hard on King. I'm not saying that its not fun.. it is but It would be a lot more interesting if Rome was a lot closer to my score and maybe the other civs weren't so far behind.. what should I do in my game play.
I started by being really aggressive since I was mongol I rushed the tech to get Kashiks easly took out 2 civs.. alexander and the aztecs.. I only had 4 main cities 1 of which was annexed and 3 settled and i had rest as puppets and later about turn 200 i annexed couple more. Early game bot Gold and Happiness was a problem I sold of every extra resource and anything I could so that I wont get bankrupt. I am about 275 turns in 3 civs have been wiped I have 130 GPT which is about 100 less than Rome. Its getting close to Industrial era and I will soon lose the mounted unit benefit and Rome is way too powerful if I attack them I need to train a lot more troops.. I don't think I will win.
What should I do different?
By the way Rome is 600 points ahead of me and the closest person behind me is Bismark who is 300 behind.
