Looking for a strong Babylon tech strategy...is there one? I used to play the vanilla version of this game. Just started playing G&K and a little dissapointed with the changes made to science. Anyone got a good strategy for going for a tech win? Thanks!
 
Strategy for Babylonian tech supremacy?
1. Research pottery>writing.
2. Settle scientist immediately.
3. Enjoy great tech rate for early game. With this you can beeline wonders or units or just cruise in tech while expanding behind great walls and bowmen.

Babylon tech is very easy, if you looked at the UA elimination thread they only got eliminated because you really don't need the boost on lower difficulties.
 
For the most part, yes, but the key takeways for Babs (like any other science victory) is to grow, grow, grow. More pop = more science, and more citizens to work food tiles in the middle and late game means you can support more specialists (whether OCC or multiple cities). I've tried Babs with a Liberty, 6+ city approach, and it can work, but I haven't been able to make it work as well (i.e., as quickly) as Tradition 3-4 city approach (plus puppets).
