Emperor/Normal to 1 AD
Settled 1E on sugar. 2nd city went on the copper and i started building axes to rush Toku. He's protective, little bit far away, and built 2 cities on hills - but i don't like him. Passed by his other 2 cities to take his capital 1st since it wasn't on a hill. Will turn into my GP farm later.
Razed his other two cities and eliminated him. Unfortunately i didnt' get a blocking city up to the east, so Qin has put 3 cities on "my part" of the continent.
So i figure i'd try and kill some more protective archers. CRII and CRIII axes helped out.
Also took Nanjung which was just east of my capital. A few turns later i would take Khoisan and get meditation from Qin for peace.
Tech at 1 AD - Qin is way ahead but the rest aren't too far away.
to 1160 AD
Nothing much happened in this part. Built infrastructure trying to get some kind of research going. Just starting to get decent now.
Way behind everyone - especially Qin. He got paper ahead of me. I went for machinery, waiting for a GS to bulb part of education.
Took too long to get national epic up in Kyoto. Was running 5-7 scientists in caste, but wasn't popping GS's when i needed them. Qin beats me to lib by 5 turns with his tiny dumb empire.
I still don't even have construction. I just started my UB in the cap. Need to get 6 up quick for oxford while also looking to get a bunch of maces/cats to take out Qin. He has nice cottaged land, and with him gone i have paper/education/lib on everyone and it won't look as bad. Might go for trebs instead of cats, not sure. He doesn't have a lot of troops or cities - but protective longbows are tough to kill. I'm #1 in land so i should be able to win this if i don't mess it up. Optics would be nice too cause i'd like to see what the map looks like.
