There is at least one problem with games with truce.
You can effectively play only mid to large countries.
Because if you want small country you have to play with different style - aggressive style. You have to attack and conquer from day one. It is risky yes but it is necessary for a small country to be able to cach large or medium one.
Actually I would theorize that you have to take at least 3 cities per day in first 10 days as small country to be competitive in mid or late game.
Otherwise as small country with 7 day truce you are just waiting to be quickly destroyed.
