    Why cant spies...

    Why cant spies steal technology? Isnt that what they do in real life, along with figuring out enemy positions and strongholds?

    I think because it would become too powerful, if one steals atomic theory, so It's ok now, if you conquer a city you get a tech, if not, that's not a problem

    That would be overpowered also if that's the cheapest tech.. In the modern era all technologies are long to research I think..

    Maybe then you couldnt send a spy into random cities and get it. Maybe the most science city (which you wouldnt know which one was) or the capital meaning players could defend against it easily but if they neglect it they get burned.

    No, 75 hammers for a tech.. That's the same.. I think it's ok that you get technologies only killing units..
