I'll also add in that I personally value production early a lot, and the reason for that is to hit a temporary power spike for unit production.
I see you had plenty of gold lying around, and personally I think you should have spent that early to buy the 2f2p tile right from the start when you could afford it.
With that tile (and any envoys at the military CS) you should be able to churn out a slinger a lot faster, as well as the following settler.
After that, you should have gone for pure warrior (and later archer) production with the added +50% bonus from Agoge.
This build order (2 city with early settler after slinger) usually works regardless of your victory condition, but it is imperative that you do it as fast as possible since your window of opportunity is short, so get those high production tiles!
