Playing as Japan, Large map, More Aggressive AI, Monarch, all other settings default.
When I look at the 'Power' rating on the graph page, the text states that Power is a mixture of units, wonders etc...
Using this, I saw that the Power rating of Rome was much higher than my own, and although I know that they have built several wonders, and have also taken most of the Greek cities (I took Athens and a couple of others myself), I expect that Caesar will have a lot of legions partying merrily in the fog.
Therefore, I was understandably reluctant to start a war with them but as they were moving around 20 units into my territory, I realized I had no choice but to get them to DoW.
Now they flood units into my land and they are mostly archers and spearmen, with a couple of legions now and then. None of these are a match for my samurai, and I'm pushing Rome back more and more each turn.
My question is, is the Power rating skewed to show a nation is far more powerful than it actually is when it has built a lot of wonders or has a lot of cities rather than it's pure military might?
Rome is still showing as slightly more powerful than me now, but unless Caesar has 50+ legions hidden away where I can't see them, I don't see how he can defend against my soon-to-arrive hordes of samurai.
(I'm the only one with Chivalry BTW - made a beeline for it.)
