Hey all,
Well, I've moved up to playing on emperor full time from monarch where I was winning comfortably.
I have the early game down pretty good in that I can usually conquer one neighbour and get liberalism by at least 800AD, sometimes sooner. I usually have a small tech lead (~3ish good techs) by early renaissance.
My victory goal is always domination (my fav).
The leaders I've been playing are: gandhi, hatshepsut, and monty. I use FE/SE.
My main problem is I end up doing 1 of 2 things:
1) I over expand and end up falling behind in tech.
2) I do great in tech but fall behind in # of cities and then have a hard time invading new lands because I can't crank out enough units fast enough (even with drafting I found out my last game )
Any advice for how to balance research and conquest after say 800 AD???
Thx in advance.
