    Should I raze or keep city?

    I usually keep Cities I conquer so I would definitely keep it, let it revolt and retake it later. I only raze Cities if they are too close to each other.

    [GS] AI always ahead of me? Did something change?

    OP you could take a different approach in the early eras and then dominate in the later eras. I usually play on emperor / standard speed, but I got interested so I started a new game with the same settings as you. I start to build three slinger and then a builder, then I continue to build two...

    Fast Tourism Wins?

    If you build/conquer many cities you can compete with Russia/Kongo/Greece for Writers and Artists. The more Cities, the more Theatre squares and Art Museums you can build. So an Early Archer rush is a good start IMO.

    Domination: When to go all in?

    I don’t know if its quick enough for your taste but I do it when I can build Field Cannons and Cavalry. That’s usually the only units I use.

    Game Setup

    To have fun when I play is the most important for me as well and I don’t necessarily have to struggle to have fun. By the way continents, standard map is my favorite setting as well.

    Early rush: How long?

    I stop when I can’t conquer more Cities with my Archers/Warriors/Swordsmen or when I have conquered all Cities on my continent.

    I suck at war (Emperor level)

    An early Archer rush can be done on Deity as well. Just don’t build any Settlers until you have at least 6 Archers and 2 Warriors. You need a Builder though.

    I suck at war (Emperor level)

    I can’t see how you can do better if you avoid an early rush. I just started a game yesterday and had a few saves so I could reload and try a different strategy. The settings are: Small Map, Continents, Immortal, 4 AI Players, I play as Cleopatra. Spain is the second Nation on my Continent. In...

    What are your thoughts on the Granary?

    Yes, I always start by building Monuments and Granaries, in that order and in every new City. Only one exception from this and that’s in my Capital. In my Capital I usually build them much later as I have other priorities in the early stage of the game.

    I suck at war (Emperor level)

    My Early Rush is really early; I usually build four Slingers. All of them are scouting and clearing Barbarian outposts. Then I build a Builder as this is an easy way to boost a few technologies. Now I keep building Slingers until I get at least six of them. In the meantime, I research Archery...

    A consistent Egypt strategy?

    In Civ 4 I almost always played Leaders with the Financial trait. It’s nothing like that in Civ 6 but Egypt and Cleopatra is as close I can come. Honestly, it’s the only reason I’ve played Egypt in almost every game. After the initial phase, I build up a strong economy so I can upgrade my...

    Do you build encampments?

    Usually I build it in one City so I can build the Terracotta Wonder. As I only build military units from Production early in the game I can’t see any reason to build more Encampments. Later I use faith to build my military units. For City protection, I build City Walls and Ranged Units.

    Taking City States - yes or no?

    That’s how I usually do it. No need to capture a City State if you can benefit from it.

    Are District Projects Worth It?

    From my experience, Holy Site Prayers are very good when you try to found your own religion and a couple of times it has helped me to win the race for a Great Prophet.

    Defending against AI religious aggressiveness?

    In my latest game I was disappointed that I couldn’t even found a religion but after a while I realized that six nations was fighting to win a religious victory. Well I didn’t bother anymore because no one had a chance to win a religious victory. So my conclusion was that if you’re playing on...
