... attempt my first Emperor game. I've just completed winning w/ each Civ on King. My top 6 HoF games are:
1 - Shaka; technology; turn 424; 3652 pts.
2 - Boudicca; technology; turn 478; 3049 pts.
3 - Bluetooth; diplomatic; turn 425; 2816 pts.
4 - Kamehameha; technology; turn 454; 2793 pts.
5 - Adolphus; technology; turn 427; 2777 pts.
6 - Ramkhamhaeng; diplomatic; turn 430; 2758 pts.
I realize most people may play those to their strengths (e.g. Shaka = conquest), but I tend to settle 4 cities, acquire a few puppet cities from rivals, then tech while acquiring, usually, all the city-states as allies. I often find myself delaying a diplo victory to play out a tech or culture win.
Given the AI bonuses on Emperor, any recommendations for my first Emperor game?
