Controlled CivBench on Vox Populi 5.2.7, Civilization V

Matched Maps

Compare strategists and experimental conditions with a VPAI baseline on the same maps and starting positions, so differences in performance can be assessed with the starting setup held constant.

Strategists exceed VPAI strength in 334/744 matched map-and-seat comparisons (44.9%); strength differences range from -0.495 to +0.425.
