Next stop to lib is probably more likely philosophy
philo is also needed for lib, and paci is likely the only way to get enough GSci to make lib attractive.
It is not the capital yield that is my point. I think selfteching philosophy early is an unnecessary detour.Bureau with such a capital is not worth that much, while pacifism is very valuable. Of course it's not a problem to get the necessary GS for bulbs, but getting an extra GM is great.
I perhaps try it out some day. But here no point running pacifism as no religion has spread to my cities. Founding Tao and adopt it is usually suicidal. Here my strategy works fine:Try it out a few times!
Get philosophy first, and put one turn into the wonder in any city.
The AIs somehow detect that the wonder has been started and that deters them from going for the tech themselves. They are also detered from going philo if Tao is already founded.
The point is ofcourse to lower the chances the AIs ever going philo themselves, if you have a monopoly on philo winning lib is a whole lot easier, and you have a bigger chance of getting something really yummy.
In marble plays, it also dramatically increases your chance of getting Taj.
