Hi all. Criticism and suggestions are welcome.
Cultural, 1485AD, 34551 points (1454 basic), 10,5 hours, 5 sessions.
Small, GreatPlains, no barbs, no cheating. English, Lizzy. Hatty, Washington, Cyrus, Fred.
Initial expansion was not too good, bad 4th city, ended up flipping to other civ, fortunately that happened after my cathedrals where done. Parthenon, Music via GP, 1st to Liber. Alph somewhat late (not beeline but Myst, BW and Masonry first). Late Alphabet brought down global tech pace. Starting position wasn't too good. Teching till 740AD. Liber620AD. Alph 965BC. Hammers phase: 650BC-1025AD. No rush buying, but slavery. 9GP, all artists, all 100% probability. So no Academy! 6Cathedr, ended up with only 3 cities.
Debate:
1.-Is Parthenon worthwhile?
Pros:
-20 culture after 1000 years.
-1 GP artist just in time to pop Music with its free GP.
Cons:
-Your 4th city its going to end in a very bad place if you divert hammers from expansion towards a wonder.
2.- Is Pyramids worthwhile?
@Godotnut recommends getting the Pyramids, then the GL with the GP engineer. I don't like the idea, you "waste" a GP that should have been an artist and you polute your poll with engineer and scientist points. On the other hand, he is able to rushbuy Temples and Cathedrals, while i have to whip them.
