Went on a mission to see how well Ibn Battuta w/ Greece city state strategy could perform for fast science since it wasn't discussed. It took a few tries but I eventually got everything to align for my best Antiquity to date. I kept getting around 108-112 and struggled to get a 2nd civ elimination, and then on the 4th run got this 94. All the info in this and the latest GOTM thread was super helpful.
// Notes: Two civ eliminations, all 4 legacy paths, one future civic. First civ elimination was on turn 58.
Also a good reminder that trying to roll great starts is a trap because the map outside your starting view is so much more important -- this was a pretty innocuous looking spawn. Attaching save files if anyone wants to give it a try! I'll follow up w/ Exploration.
// Edit: Got 60 and 28 for 182 total turns -- def left some on the table as I'm not super familiar with how to min-max explo and modern, cheers!
Settings: Deity / Standard Speed / Large / Pangea Plus / Continuity / 10 turn timer
