I never said you could. Or should. My idea of "strategy" says that you should have an early game mapped out, and know what you're capable of in the late game, but what you do in between and which late-game you aim for depends upon what happens early on. I'd rather know what it *means* to find an Enchantress site (clams!), or find garnet amazons (bloodstones!), or to find the Library of Time (Shadow Seers, teleporting Will of the Fates!), or to locate Caelum's capital (air gems!), or to start next to Niefelheim (research Ench-3 immediately!). Rigid nations are no fun IMHO.
