That has probably made a huge difference by preventing him from eliminating any other nations. This really throws into perspective for me the importance of fighting to the last. Thanks to Calahan and tgbob for teaching me this.
My thanks should go to you then Trumanator for observing, listening and learning, just what a huge difference not going AI really does make. I wish more players could be enlightened

And the best way you can thank me (and tgbob) in return is by adopting a stead-fast "never turn-AI policy". As anyone who plays with that great attitude is more than welcome to play in any future games that I organise
