Why Turtle

[Proserpine]

Yah, with all honesty, I wish for a TW game where we HAVE to turtle and use diplomacy to survive at all.

I think CA could use some change in political sciences people. TW series, so far, have been way too much morally nihilistic and neo-liberal.

Not sure what you mean by "neo-liberal" in this context, though by "morally nihilistic" you presumably refer to the emphasis on war/conquest as the route to victory. To my mind there has yet to be a TW (or similar) game where the AI can't be beaten, without cheating/exploits, by a good human player. And AI's are particularly vulnerable to the sort of blitz tactics that the likes of ATPG favour. That is a limitation of AI/programming not pol sci.
