man buy the dlcs
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I have had an exploratory go at multiplayer and I am terrible at it. I tend to play defensive so I take less risks, and so I generally survive, but I am never at the forefront.

I think my major issue is that I never build scouts when playing AI because I only ever play Marathon and by the time you have built the scout most of the city states have been found and it's rare that it will race to many tribal villages.

Another thing is that I am rather unlikely to attack people, preferring to have my units chill at home in case of attack.

What a have found good though is that with the amount of people building straight for cav units for the movement, it's easy to weather the storm of a strong military by rushing to pikemen, thereby being able to defend. The warmongers just get so much free stuff from conquering, especially if they snag the first disconnect.

I won my game as Austria, although it was a lot closer than I would have liked.

Urgh... and I just learnt that Bananas and Bison are Bonus not luxury resources... Noone told me that.
