I had just kicked ass on emperor and was telling a friend I thought the game was too easy. He didn't think so, so he bet me $5 I couldn't beat the game on deity. Here are the parameters: 7 civs, large map, conquest only. I can't be the Persians or the Romans. Wow, what a shock when I started playing. After starting a game on Pangea, then on archipelago, I realized what a huge leap Deity is from Emperor. I've been finding surprisingly few strategies online for beating Deity, considering its the real challenge of Civ3. What I've found says that is easy once you're in the modern age, but how do you survive AND advance that far? Does anyone wanna post some strategy ideas?
 
Sure, the strategy for beating Deity is everywhere on this forum.:) Look for thread started by Aeson or SirPleb. You may have to dig some of their old posts. "7 civs, large map, conquest only" is really a piece of cake, IMO. Good luck!
 
You must build more cities faster. Deity level is more agressive because you can get behind the power graph quickly, and they will declare war on you.

As they only need 12 food to go up a pop they expand much more quickly, also I think they have an additional settler compared to emporer. Avoiding an early war when not prepared for one is the key to beating the deity level
