What are the effects on the player and the AI from increasing the difficulty level?
I played as the Chinese on Prince for my first game (not quite finished but almost). I want to try out the Greeks on Monarch but does the player get any penalties that alter gameplay balance of (such as price to purchase things)? Also, does anyone know what types of bonus the AIs get? I don't mind most of them but a direct research bonus could be kind of lame. I don't want to see too many AIs progressing too fast technologically. I would prefer if they are more effective than on Prince but have close to the "standard" technology variation.
Going to play on a large map in the second game (first played on huge).
