Congratulations on your win! That surely counts as ultimate CiV5 achievement in my book. HoF G&K section is pretty empty, cause it started accepting submissions like two weeks ago.
I did post one Carthage archipelago deity domination game myself. But that's easy. Didn't attempt pangaea/continents games yet. Gotta be pretty crazy, eh? How did the game go anyway? And what settings did you use?

Thanks ^^
I always play on default settings (settings that you get when you click on "default" button), that would be continents, small (6&12), temperate, normal speed, medium sea level, no victory or rule changing... Just change difficulty of course
I got Spain, had great luck to find great barrier reef first and found a second city on it, but no crazy luck to find 1 more natural wonder and place third city on it (that would be too much aguess), found a third city on some nice land & resourses instead, no luck to find a good spot for 4th city so i only built 3 cities and developed them, went for tradition policies (of course), managed to found a religion, didn't have much luck with world wonders becouse i tried to build like 5 of them and only managed to finish terracota army, had luck not to be attacked until i was ready for war.
In first war (after i got tercio & conquistador) i conquered most of Byzantium cities (including capital) without much trouble, than while i was preparing for second war i got attacked by both them and India (wich is not as peacefull as it was in previous civilizations games aguess) but i was prepared so after some struggling i managed to finish off Byzantium and take gold & resourses for peace from India, in third war i was planning to conquer Indian capital fast but i didn't manage to do it fast so the war prolonged until i got atomic bomb (ho, ho, ho), got their capital than and took gold & resourses for peace again...
On the other continent Iroquise already conquered most of Arabia (including capital) so Arabia was not a problem, and Iroquise was in process of conquering Egyptian capital so i hoped that i will only have to make a force to quickly grab the Iroquise capital and win but i had no luck there, Egypt got Atomic bombs before Iroquise (or Iroquise decided not to build them) so thay managed to defend and i had to go for both Iroquise and Egyptian capitals to win...
Egyptian capital was coastal so that was not much of a problem (2 nuclear bombs from nuclear submarine, 3 bombers from carrier and 1 destroyer = city conquest in 1 turn), i had that force ready and waiting by the Egyptian borders, but Iroquise capital was not coastal so i had to take 1 of their coastal cities first and than storm the capital from that city before they gather much troops.
I bearly managed to do that with 6 atomic bombs from 2 carriers, 1 carrier with 3 fighters, 3 battleships, 2 destroyers, and 7-8 land units (including paratroopers wich i used to quickly get to their capital after 1 turn conquest of that coastal city. Same turn i got their capital i declarced war on Egypt and got their capital too.
Ahh, victory
It was yesterday but i'm still excited
