@farmboy it might still default to something close to what we end up. Both players have to be thinking both that they don’t want to give anything to their opponent and they want to a good position if htey end up with allies. I think that might lead to well placed but low cost units (which along with a fig or two makes the most sense in a standard bid game.

I’m going to disagree with this statement. There are large infantry stacks everywhere.
Caught in a build war I am going to lose.
This is probably true. I’ve got the income and factories / transports to out produce you.
