Still sounds like an illogical quirk.
Also, Sioux aren't that UP, any problems people have with them are generally their own and not the civs.

sioux has little to no lategame cards .. -> so their eco is sort of depressing if it goes the game sticks around for awhile. euro civs get factories and all kinds of eco cards, what does sioux get? well they have nice military cards but so does euro


hmm

Hold on.. Lategame?
I think being able to get like 160 siege ARs and mass an army EASILY both provides an excuse for poor eco, and also sincerely hampers your oponents eco.
If you can't do anything with the Axe Riders, or any form of OP Sioux Cav then either you're playing worse than your oponent, or playing Jap :P
But no, I think if anyone goes lategame with Sioux that they should have a disadvantage, they own imo early game, raiding can ruin someone when they only have 16 vills or so, and they're supposed to be played aggressively, just like ports suck at not turtling - it's the opposite, bit of variation in the game.
