And now, about the game itself:
1. Utopias are cheating!!!
2. Pandoras are cheating!!!
But diplomacy isn't!
And the fact that you also have to kill the guards in Utopias doesn't count.
Of course, if you use free units from diplomacy to stir up one or two groups of Titans or Angels, then, I apologize, it's a different story...
Or here's another gem:
I suggest you try playing 200 turns against the AI without Pandoras and Utopias... you won't find a more difficult opponent.
We tried. We found one. I played against it for 7 years. But the computer is still a computer, even if you set it to 200 or 400% (if that were possible). It will always be a computer!
- 7 computers in one team won't replace one person!!
Maybe it's worth trying to play online before making such categorical statements?
And of course, the very principle is amusing - trying to teach online players, having only experience playing against computers - it's just funny!
No offense. But before writing something like that, maybe you should play at least 5-10 games?
P.S.: I hate diplomacy.
P.P.S.: I don't consider myself one of the strong players.
Thank you for your attention.
