By the way, I'm not sure I answered on the use of the artist. I think it'll be about the same length of time to get gp's out of cannae and om. So the only problem is if they are both scientists.
I have a feeling we're in a fight to the (our) death with Mack now, and the artist bomb is our best chance of hurting his core. So I think its worth the risk. If we do have a window before he builds up his military again its going to be short, so we either take some cities now or sit back building cats and cuirs to suttree him when he comes back at us. Either way we're probably just delaying the inevitable, but hey, its worked for suttree for a long while!
