Hi all. I have an admittedly vague question/concern and would appreciate any feedback or tips.
I seem to be very good at micromanaging my initial beginning strategy.
Usually by end of turn 1 I pretty much know what wonders I'm going for, where I'm going to expand, and what technology path to take.
I can plan my route and strategy pretty well up until around the CoL + era, and then I find myself being very sloppy or just hitting "Enter" alot to skip to the next turn to hurry up the game.
Does anyone else feel this way? REALLY focused, strategizing, and planning to start, then it sort of dwindles away?
Maybe it's just a lack of experience and a lack of knowledge about what the mid-late game technologies do, how to utilize their benefits, and how they synergize with with your plan...I dunno.
Long story short, my early game pretty much goes exactly the direction I want it to go in, but mid-late game I find myself playing it by ear. I find myself letting the AI civs direct the flow of the game, rather than ME directing it (politically, military, technologically, etc) the way I do early game.
/end confusing ramble!
