I wouldn't say I suck at warmongering, but it's certainly my weakest point. I can only just barely pull off domination wins on Monarch given more-or-less ideal circumstances.
So, I started a Prince game as Julius Caesar with domination in mind.
But 5,000 years into the game, though leading in nearly every facet, I was making the same mistakes I always make ... sad part about it is that I'm not sure how not to make the mistakes.
I know I would've won the game, but in no better way than any other of my crappy domination wins -- and thus not helping me to get better at it at all.
So here that game is. Hopefully, with the collective mind of the CFC warmongers, I can see how better to address warmongering.
Thanx in advance.
My thoughts on the start:
The two hills hidden in the fog look like Plains Hills. That being the case, settling in place gives me 3 hills just barely covered at pop 4, which I don't like.
Settling 1W on the Ivory puts enough food to cover 4 hills at pop 6 perfectly, gives me a strong city center and puts me on the river (connect other cities and, if lucky, Iron).
Settler 1st build lets me take maximum advantage of Imperialistic (especially if I settle 1W), so I lean towards that.
Worker 1st build would lead me to a Settler chop, but I'd rather save the forests for Praets.
Logical tech path appears to be BW -> Ag -> AH.
I look forward to any and all advice.
