Well, I just finished one of the rummiest and funniest games I ever played against the comp - and after reading this, dare you ever say the CP is so predictable
Settings: large hill country map, for random civs; 2 Egyptian, 1 Shang, little me was Roman.
Reasonable start, got to tool fast, rushed to Bronze (forgot the time) and started routing Egypt 1 with some axemen and chariots. Shang was very quiet so I left them alone. Big mistake (or perhaps not).
Did I ever lose lots of chariots to those sleek Shang priests! Oh my, the bastards seemed to eat out of their hands. Not just that, those hairy guys converted my STs and Cats as if they were pussycats.
But the craziest thing I ever saw - what a pity I didn't make a screenshot of it - was a priest getting killed by an elephant!!!! An elephant hunted by CP played Shang Villagers in ROR - you try to beat me there. Finally won by invading with hordes of priests and chariots myself and converting every building that my chariots and Catapults (built after their temple was down of course) didn't take down..
