Why is this done on such a small level? I would have thought that with systems now in place that evolutionary game theory could be done in simulations on such a much larger scale (say 7bn agents +) ... if anything AI systems should be able to determine if certain strategies work (like items like blocking resources - such as a case of geopolitical theory) so see what cooperations occur at that level. Still amazing work but it should be applied to a larger scale for real meaning. More eager to see how RL applied to RTS games will explore and develop strategies more than anything.
