The problem with CS is that when you get to the third era, they are no longer relevant as workers.
There should be slaves for the third phase, being equivalent to 3 citizens in terms of efficiency but with less health.
Thus the population will be enslaved as a labor force and the rest dedicated to war.
And so it was when powerful empires grew and lived off the work of others.
While the armies were fighting abroad.
Female citizens should be able to create soldiers in houses and research in buildings or heal units elsewhere, perhaps turning them into priestesses.
There should be a single dynamic of evolution of society, from a small farming society to a cosmopolitan society.
Today I was playing and I realized how boring the late game is.
I modified the game to have less powerful rams. I nerfed the rams. I'll do the same with the catas.
