I know this was discussed a bit before with the blank mod files - but is it possible to start with a blank mod, and dynamically give the AI advantages? Gems, gold, +resource %, +income%, etc?
I've got a fun SP game going where I'm smack in the middle of 7 nations, each of which somehow ignored me and fought someone else - so I was able to build, temple up and research fully. I finally got bored, but they've all depleted themselves in their wars (Thetis just helped them along

and its pretty anti-climactic. Most of them are mighty, so i figured a better final fight
For the future, could I 1. start with a blank mod 2.???? 3. have super AI? What would ??? actually be?
And to beat a dead horse, I REALLY wish the AI could deal with or even use SCs. They're my fav part of the game, yet its almost cheating going that direction.
