Re: Is is possible to cheat?
Well, DavidG mentioned no AI players, but one dead human. The second colonization tech strongly indicates the fortunate ruines and since his archrival has ancient race it is quite possible. If he hunted for ruines, get a second colonization, then get one or two good ruin planets from second planet type, there should be no problems getting so high in religios tech. The rest of technologies is not THAT advanced in fact.
Two colonization types earlier on means bunch of breathable planets and run away research.
Hey, all of you, switch to the Propotions mod, there will be no such an outrages stuff then !

Re: Is is possible to cheat?
If the empire that player defeated actually surrendered to him, it would be very easy for him to research straight up to Talisman, and grab all the broad tech base from ruins and deconstructed ships.
Note that he gets all the levels he wants if the empire surrendered, since he has tens of ships to analyse.

Huh?? What does this mean? Does he not just get whatever tech is on the ship?

I could have sworn that a surrender gets you all of the victim's non-racial techs, not just +1 level.

Re: Is is possible to cheat?
Sorry. He can get as many levels in each tech as he wants, assuming the other guy has them.
It would only take three ships to get most of the tech listed below.

But that was my point; when I've gotten a race to surrender, I've gotten ALL of their tech WITHOUT analyzing ANY ships, not just one level of each.
