Started the game with Greece and Prince difficulty (I know too easy since I played emperor in civ 4).
I witnessed Bismarck not making a single military unit in the whole 160 turns (epic speed) of gaming apart from scouts. I crushed him utterly with companion cavarly combined with a great general.
Japans expansion was very slow and I could've easily stuck him in a corner since they weren't able to expand towards me. Didn't feel the need to since Bismarck gave all his cities pretty much for free (didn't lose a single unit in taking his 4 towns including capitol).
As much as I enjoyed allying with 4 city-states and all the other very nice things, The AI seemed like a braindead zombie to me. I know I know, Prince, but come on...no single military unit Bismarck? Really? At least Catherine had warriors/archers/spearmen, but I think every single empire would've fallen for my 4 companion cavarlies with general Cromwell.
So I looked at the demographics and I was #1 on everything except approval rating. Pretty much 3 times the food/production/commerce values compared to average. All this in my first game and 4 companion cavarlies.........
Has anyone else had this?
