[QUOTE="cignus_pfaccari, post: 3838388, member: 14557"] Also, as silly as this sounds to have to say, maintain a standing army, both in your city garrisons, and outside. There's nothing like having the Aztecs come across the border and not having enough of a garrison in your city to hold them off while you build an army to fight them. I'm especially guilty of this, because I'm still used to Civ2, where you could apply production from buildings to units in an emergency. The other benefit of the standing army is that you're less likely to get attacked for having them, since the computer does take your relative strengths into account. They also give you the option of attacking your opponent, and dealing with barbarians. They are expensive to upgrade, but then again, if you use them up, you don't have to upgrade them. :) Brad [/QUOTE]
