Do what I do and modify the tech file yourself to increase tech times. (though copy and save the original somewhere to be able to revert if you want)
I took the Ancient techs and halved there cost twice and added that number to the cost.
I took the Classical techs and halved them once and added that to the cost.
I doubled the Medieval techs.
I multiplied the Renaissance techs by 3.
I multiplied the Industrial techs by 4.
And finally I multiplied the Modern techs and Future Tech by 5.
Also like you I play on Marathon exclusively in order to have the game add to the costs even more. With this you should be playing for quite a long time more. Of note it will b wise to disable Time victory in order to increase play time if necessary.
Also to play long games as well you may consider making Culture victory require 5 cities to win and either not going intentionally for Domination or play on huge and larger continents maps in order to delay Domination victory.

Thank you.
Is there a possibility you could upload or send me your edited file (so i know it works correctly)
you can email me personally if you prefer - coopsxx@gmail.com
I assume things still research at the right time? I don't want tanks in the 10th century etc,
thank you

I've never played it, but Kjotleik has made a mod with gametimes much longer than marathon:

There may be a few others I forgot, but all of the above have a greater than marathon speed settings.

With Caveman to Cosmos (C2C) you can start at 20,000 BC and your first tech is discovering fire. I once played C2C with an advanced start (my first tech was discovering settlements) at 6,000 BC (Prince, epic, huge map, 16 civs). I played that game for over 100 hours before I conquered the world in 1850 or so.
