Some screenshots from the 4 player FFA test match on Latium RM. I was playing Romans, while AI players were Hellenes, Carthaginians and Persians. All 3 mustered huge armies, with the Persians launching around a dozen mass attacks on everyone, with every unit in their arsenal, by the end of the game. In the end, it was me against the Persians. They continued to send huge waves of "trash" units even after all Metal was gone.  I'd say that the test was successful.

That doesn't warrant ignoring the instructions how to report violations: Violations have to be reported privately to one of the lobby moderators. So please do that in future. To quote comments I made earlier in this thread:  

Red - Romans and Spartans Blue - Athenians and Britons Light blue/Azure - Seleucids Green - Persians and Gauls Purple - Persians as well Yellow - Carthaginians, Iberians, and Hans Orange - Mauryans

I am mostly focused on basic implemention of component/functions. I was thinking of a game of rock, paper, scissors. The Priest = Religión and Myths etc. The Philosopher= Rational and metaphysical thought and elemental natural social. Then Politician= Aristotelianism, platonism, despotism, republic oligarchs, democracy and tyrants. The politician defeats the philosopher and converts through bribery. Politician is defeated by Religion, Priest handles more masses than the politician, the conversion with villagers through myth and faith. The philosopher defeats the religious by conventionalizing myth and metaphysics and convinces through oratory but it is a defeat. Priest>Politician>Philosopher Priest uses faith. Politician uses metal. Philosopher uses oratory. These are the types of control (mind and ideas) through discourse and influence. Conquest without struggle. It's an idea for fighting between units that convert. Priest bonus vs support units ( villagers and slaves). Politician Bonus vs Elite & Champion military. Philosopher bonus vs Citizen Soldier B & A, merchants. It's an idea...
