I've never had a start quite like this. Has me rethinking my strat.
Now I love the religion sub game. I generally use it to boost my economy from the follower beliefs. Generally I play as the Celts when I want to play with religion. So my current game is Immortal, HUGE, 12+24CS.
And I'm on a nice size island...by myself. Well, 2 city states. I have room easily for 5-8 cities. Tons of salt. Some Wine, Marble, Furs and even a natural wonder.
Now my original focus was a cultural win, but I'm thinking thats not likely to happen. To me, this seems like a perfect diplomatic victory start. No one to get pissed at my borders. I've also contemplated going for a military victory using my safe island to build up forces for a late game blitz.
My main question. I've got sailing and optics. I've gone around my island looking for a shallow water bridge, but no luck. Should I beeline astronomy so I can start meeting everyone (to avoid getting too far behind on tech) or just focus on building a good solid economy, nice cities, and such?
