Ive become desperate to find a way to make authority work on quick speed. Its kind of devolved into me finding new creative (exploitative) strategies.
Its long known you can dw on city states, steal a worker, and get peace. This has been mitigated by making captured workers very inefficient for a long time. I like this as it allows for the player to calculate if its worth doing.
My strategy is to dw kill a couple units, make peace immediately preventing the city state from counter attacking.
This allows me to lvl up my units amd get the precious culture and science from unit kills. And eventually conquer the city.
My question is this: is this an exploit or an acceptable strategy.
The downsides to this strategy is increased city state decay from angering the city states, as well as increased war monger penalties.
I expect this strategy to be met with denouncements and cut off from the rest of the world through sanctions.
So only viable if you plan to be a war monger anyhow.
