For my first game I'll be role-playing as Outremer, renaming all of my cities after those in the Crusader-State. While not everything will be a recapitulation of the Crusades (this isn't Crusader Kings II, after all), the medieval holy wars are certainly informing some of my decisions.
As a rule, I plan to get the first religion founded, conqueror the Holy City of every other religion, and spread my religion through peaceful proselytizing otherwise, obviously aiming for a Religious Victory.
Civilization: Spain
Speed: Standard
Type: Continents
Map: Standard
Difficulty: Warlord
Resources: Abundant
Other Civilizations:
First cities:
Religion: Christendom
Founder Belief: Crusade
Follower Belief: Reliquary
Worship Belief: Mosque (captured, thematically)
Wonders:
Oracle (for faster Great Prophet)
Mont St. Michael
Hagia Sophia
