Things are definitely better over here than the real game. I've taken all of Ragnar's cities except one, and I have some more troops coming to take that one. I kept the 3 gem capital and the Confucianist holy city. I razed one that was misplaced near the canal city, one north of the holy city and one just SE of the iron. The only bad thing is Mehmed set up a city where the canal city should go then closed borders since he is now a Christian. This means that I am going to have to ferry troops by galley to get them into play.
I'm a little behind in tech, but my tech rate is much higher than it has been. I should be able to get Mao to help me beat up on Mehmed. The rest of the world has 3 religions, so they shouldn't be one big happy family. I'm one turn from Monarchy, which means my cities can grow as big as they want since the health cap is so high.
So it seems to be a pretty big difference. I did get the lucky tech pop at the start, but the real difference is definitely Ragnar not taking full advantage of his capital and getting to longbows so fast.
