Hi,
I usually play Catherine (Imp/Cre) for Russians. And the game usually ends when I get invaded by some 6 centurions or whatever. By that time i have axeman/swordsman and it seems like all the other civs have some immortal units that I can only get ~6% to defeat them, on my own forests. And that's even without them fortifying.
Now I know about defense bonuses, but still. Is it that I should be:
a) giving more priority for some technologies unit-wise?
b) just making more mediocre unis so I can defend using like 8 of them to defeat one enemy unit? what about if I want to attack, then?
The other thing is I don't seem to get anything of my special unit (Cossack), because by the time I get these, it's like everyone has already made their trades and they all have some special units defeating my cossacks hands down.
And one more thing. If i manage to stabilize the situation in some games, so that I don't lose half of my cities, ten times out of ten I'm the first to create railroad and eventually tanks, etc. I get the huge technological advance later, the only problem is my early game. Any ideas?
