T105 for my 3rd and final Arabia DomV (Deity, standard, GP+) game. Currently, the only faster HoF game is with the Huns.
*10 horses start, no horses for my 2nd expo, so I traded gpt for horses for a while (most of the game, really, if you include horses from peace deals)
*I never built granaries in any city
*expos went Monument, Library
*did not tech Sailing, so just 1 caravan. Did not tech BW until after Chivalry.
*I didn't build GW guild and, with no CS help, I had to wait on culture to finish Liberty, delaying Chivalry
*as I was waiting on culture to finish Liberty, I researched Masonry and 2/3 of Construction. Then, absentmindedly, I annexed a capital that delayed finishing Liberty by 1 turn, resulting in Chivalry on T87
*captured 2 capitals before reaching Chivalry, then split into 2 armies while starting to build up 3rd army
*had about 3,500 gold by Chivalry, enough for all upgrades and (later) put some gold into well-positioned CS to help war. Late game, bought units, but it was overkill at that point (24 Camel Archers at the end of the game)
*did a better job of getting AI to attack each other in this game
*God-King pantheon, didn't found
Sub-T100 is doable and I hope to see vadalaz or another player get there. I'm happy to get down to T105 and will stop there for this Arabia Challenge, and take a bit of a break. If players want to start another AI DomV challenge - KingV had mentioned Babylon - I'd be interesting in starting up in late-February.
