I'm playing w/Win-XP as Scions of Patria.
I'm currently under attack by the Cualli. During the initial attack, 22 Cualli units died and I can see 42 other units (give or take) in my territory. How the (
censored) is Cualli able to pay for all these units considering that Civ needs to keep units to defend his own territory since he's right up against the Calibim which is the largest nation right now. This sort of thing really (
censored) me off since to defend myself, I think I would have had to do nothing but build mostly units. The whole point of Civ is that there are different paths to victory. Well as the Scions, I can't build that fast. Even with having the bulk of my forces in a well fortified city with pallisides & walls on a mountain, I know I'm going to get wiped out by the sheer weight of numbers.
Plus, I have NEVER like that this MASSIVE force has to get through the Chisliv's territory who is very happy with me. Beyond the 'real world' logistics of feeding an army that size, they would make a mess on their way to attack me. Plus I don't think most people would allow a massive army through their territory anyway.
So I don't know what 'magic' the AI is using to be able to field this massive army but it is totally unbalancing the game. It's like being back playing
Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri when you'd go broke trying to field enough units to defend your cities and yet the Lord's Believers could somehow not only produce 15+ cheap units but also manage to pay the maintenance cost on them when you know that to produce these units time wise means they haven't build ANY buildings.
GRRRRR! This is not how I want my first FF 0.43 game to go!

If I wanted to play a game where I did nothing but crank out military units, I'd play Command & Conquer or something!
