: : I'm playing in a game of Hyborian War as Kambulja.  I expect some of

I played Kambulja before (and it was not a great success, so you might
want to take my advice with a grain of salt :).  You can't leave Khitai
alone for too long.  As fast as you grow, he will grow even faster, and
eventually you will be left with a monstrosity.  The only advantage of
waiting is that Khitai will run into, and hopefully confront, other
countries (Hyrkania, Vendhya, Turan), but if Khitai has already made an
agreement with Hyrkania this might not be much of an advantage.  All of
your victory conditions are in Khitai, so I would go right at him,
perhaps waiting a bit until some of his armies are occupied elsewhere.
