Tomyris' Scythia too OP?

[Adam Jensen 007]

Sure it is fun to play as Tomyris. However, I do not think she is balanced. The bonuses are way too strong compared to the other civilizations.
The bonus is game breaking.
Honestly, my own suggestion is that her bonus should get nerf

Personally, this is just my opinion (feel free to disagree)
Is there are a chance that the developers would make her a bit more balanced?

Balanced how, from a player perspective or facing her as an AI? In my dozens of games, she's never posed a serious threat despite her bonuses. If you're talking multiplayer, I have no personal experience, but I've heard that a lot of playgroups simply don't allow her.

In my memory, I don't think I've heard of them making balance changes to specific civs solely due to multiplayer concerns, and I don't think they've ever waited more than a year to make a balance change on a specific civ.

what diff are you playing single player like normal. I can see her being a huge threat single player on Emperor or above. You played this game a lot is she as aggressive as atilla in civ 5?

I don't play on the highest difficulties. I hate that the only difference for higher diff is they get bonuses, but don't play any smarter. No AI is as aggressive as the warlike Civs in Civ V. They just don't know how to fight well enough.

In any case, the game is balanced around normal play, not advanced difficulties.
