Decided to finally get back to playing civ after too much Stellaris.
t208 SV and PB (poxpower's first map). Settled 5 cities, 4 before NC 1 after.
t90 edu, t101 astronomy (bought observatory in capital), t137 ST, t173 (I think?) Plastics.
Savescummed a bit so I could get Petra but that meant I couldn't get NC. I'm pretty sure if my early game was a bit faster I could have got edu around t87ish. I'm not sure if Petra was even worth it. I think trying for Colossus would have been better.
Social policies were tradition 6, rationalism 3, freedom 2, commerce opener, freedom, rationalism 2, fredom 3, finish rationalism. I think I may have forgotten to bulb a great writer after WF, but that still wouldn't have been enough culture for mercantilism. I would have also needed to get Globe Theater (which I think I could have built in time
)
William passed arts funding on the first WC and I couldn't get it unpassed so I probably could have generated another scientist. I also timed my final wave of RAs about 10 turns too late. I also got really lazy at the end and didn't build more trade routes or assign spies. With all these factors considered, I think I could sub200 this map
.
