This is why a number system (especially 10 point) isn't good for this kind of poll. Should just be a list of options:
Overpowered
Above Average
Average
Below Average
Underpowered
I think we'd get more consistent results this way.
I'd say we don't really know where India and Japan and the other non-TP civs stand because of how many maps are TP based still, and cascade etc aren't really played in tourney games.
Having played India a lot (which are kind of a TP civ in a sense, btw), they kinda just have problems dealing with strong semi-FFs. India is really slow in general, with one of the slowest age times in the game. This, combined with an aggressive build that's honestly not that hard to counter on any map with decent resources in your base and a mediocre FF and semi-FF, they just underperform.

I said this before in the EP forums—don't think anyone paid any attention to it—but I think if Iro was essentially the same as RE, but you changed the fast age politician to the 2nd age from a travois to a discovery travois (the same travois you get at the beginning—it can't build warhuts or anything like that), I think they would be a perfectly fine civ.
