Pre-thread for polls about options

It is against the AI that the 6 picks for creative becomes too strong.

I can see that in an MP game the strategy might tend toward a quick punch rather than longer development & bigger punch. It seems that those posters who win with higher difficulties (no ads, all dis-ads, etc.) seem to favor that.

If that is the case, there are not THAT many 'difficult' choices/worthwhile 2nd choices in a number of the early techs.

Haven't played multiplayer (in any computer game) yet.

oldnslow, try a hotseat game vs yourself, it takes some patience, but you can get a feel for how each race will do in relation to each other. Also for you people who can't win on impossible, see if you can with 2 races under your control in such a setup, and remember that only one of them needs to be creative, though there are benefits to both being creative, and you can't pick repulsive there either.

Hmmm I'll look into it -- but it may have to wait until after this weekend.
