Hi, my account here is new, but I read this forums for some time now.
I think I'm an average player, I currently play on King and always play tall.
After a match against an AI Greece that played wide and gave me a hard time I decided to try it and I found that playing wide when alone for a wide terrain is fairly easy since there isn't much punishment for little mistakes, but I've found that playing with your capital surrounded all over by other cities is a challenge.
So let's take this hipothetical example: I'm playing Germany wide and warmongering surrounded by CS and civs.
What's the best course of action?
What I have tried:
Techs: Husbandry>Pottery>Archery>Lib>Philosophy
Building: Scout>worker>settler>granary>2 archers (by this time I'll probably have 1 or 2 more warriors from furor)
Social: Honor
Religion: Craftsman > Happiness per city/Pagoda
Is this the "right" course? I've been finding people say honor is a no go, while others saying that it's viable, while people saying that spamming archers might be good. I'm lost.
