Maybe you always had a higher tech level than your opponents.

I've had AI races, after they surrendered to me, give me all tech I didn't have at the level they had, the only exception was their special tech like crystal, temporal, etc, these I have never gottn, only the regular Tech. Happened just Last night, the Tolkyn (can't spell it right) surrendered, obtained all their tech, example, I only had plasma msl 3, they had 5 and I got level 5.,

just some ideas mac
