Started a game on Demigod with Babylonians (usually I choose Monarch/Emperor). I decided to follow such tactic: build GL ASAP, switch to monarchy and put science to 0% and conquer all rivals on a continent and build cheap libraries and temples in captured cities to produce culture. I failed to build GL and I'm way behind. As I think, the only solution is to declare war to Vikings (appears to be my weakest and nearest rival) to expand my territory. In this game Babylonian UU has 3/1 A/D and might be sort of advantage. I have a source of Iron in Samarra, but for that reason there's no reason to build swordsmen. Cause Bowman will triger GA, I should wait before I research monarchy (every AI refused to sell it). It's 7 turns left and I already built barracks in my core cities and started producing Bowmen. WDYT, do I have any chance?
