Technology too strong?

[Makmisim]

After 150+ plays i can sure say that technology is far too strong and the best strategy to win.
Am I wrong?

Herbalist is just too cheap. 2 gold for 4+ VP per turn with almost any tech links. Compare that to master smith, alchemist or undertaker..

Still cant hardforce it obviously. If you do, you'll end up with less than 50% WR..

Not wrong at all, If i see another Craftsman I might quit...

In 1v1 against combat focus, combat can win more often than tech

Technology has strong payoffs later in the game since their VP generation are not really tied to combat. The weakness of technology build is that they do need some time to ramp up, and their combat power is more often a bit lackluster.
If you stack on a lot of combat bonuses against technology, more often than not you can secure points quicker before their engine can catch up.
