almost certainly just use basic strats they read off reddit

If they can read a strategy and implement it, still impressive.

i mean, not really. the civ 5/6 bots can play pretty decent strategy and that’s without “AI,” and most strategies are pretty formulaic

		Sure. Games have had AI's before. But to read someone else's strategy from just a document, and then implement it, that is new. The old civ did not do that, each AI just had pre-programmed rules.
