This is one of the "post-game discussion" threads I like to have after a "nice" game... (no poll this time)

This one - What was our luckiest break?

- Persia failing to conquer the Zulus fully? (would've put them in posistion to conquer the other continent, and maybe get a culture win)

- "The War That Wasn't" a.k.a., The peace renegotiation treaty which changed what Shalashaska saw? (Yes, I'll tell it to you now, since the demogame is essentially over). Babylon would have attacked us at 900AD like Shalashaska said (he also posted a screenie of the replay map, before we even knew Persia), but the peace renegotiation treaty reset the RNG. Had Babylon attacked us, who knows what the outcome would have been. We were in much worse shape at the time.

- Being the first to Cavs.

- The well timed Golden Age.

- Babylon and the Germans keeping themselves occupied.

- Other
 
I'm not sure there is a lucky break, but if I have to choose one: Ironworks possibility in our FP city; Groton, and Groton being able to build the Hoover since it's on fresh water.

Our unluckiest break is easy: those darn barbarians goody huts. IIRC 8 out of 10 huts had barbs in them.
