So you willfully squander your national resources over a belief in what you see as "cheese" instead of playing the game as written. That is certainly your perogative, but does not figure into a rational analysis.

Norfleet, I think you keep confusing "wining" the game with having fun from playing it. Granted, it is possible than for you one equal another. But personally I try never to use "cheesy" tactics in my games, because it spoils the fun for me, since I know that I am mostly wining not because of my skill and intelligence, but because I am abusing very simple and overpowered strategy again and again.

And yes, there are cheesy strategies in any strategy games, and I've played a lot of them. Dom2 is much more balanced in this respect that average strategic game, but it doesn't mean it has zero cheesy and/or abusive strategies. Clams is by far the most obvious example of it.
