Ok, there are like 2 notable players in that game beside Admiral Zhao, so basically he beat up on n00bs and bad players. Go him. Admiral Zhao is a top notch player, and Baalz has also handicapped himself with Pangaea.

I'll also note that said game is not a RAND game, which makes a huge difference for weaker nations. Its pretty obvious from the thread that he was making ample use of diplomacy as well, since he apparently had NAPs with most of his neighbors.

The rich settings may also make Agartha more viable, but I'm not sure.

Basically, you can't point to that game as an example of anything, much less a RAND game.
