Why am I so bad at war? Every thread I read on here says how bad the AI is at war and how ridiculously easy it is to win.
I've won all the other victories on deity but I cannot get a domination victory. I think a lot of the problem is that I'm a very 'slow' player. As in I don't care what turn I win on; it's just not something I'm interested in. I couldn't even tell you in how many turns I win. I've no idea. I also play more role playing so I don't use any of the 'exploits' i've read about on here.
Whenever I play I'm always out gunned early on so in a normal game I just try and hang on and eventually in the mid game I can get ahead but that doesn't seem to work for a domination. From what I've read you've got to start early but I'm always missing iron or behind on tech or up against a couple of city states as the AI gets political philosophy very early on.
Some talk about rushing to archers or spamming something but it takes **turns to produce 1 so I cant see how you can 'spam' it.
I always think about the war but I always think i need something else, another unit, more tech etc. and by the time I get round to it the AI has advanced as well and flattens me.
When people talk about winning, how many games do they have to play to get the right situatuion so they can win. Every game? Almost every game? Or are you starting again because you don't get the right start? You don't get iron or something doesn't quite fall for you.
