Sorry team, I forgot I still had to get this up. 
Pre-flight 750 AD Our power rating is climbing, as is our culture rating. We have a lot of workers building railroads, but they are all working single handed. The biggest group I see is three. Not exactly the best way to build a railroad.
I thought we were going to start the ICS so we can increase our culture. Well need some settlers. Change Eridu and Uruk to settlers. Spend 24G hurrying Eridus.
Sell incense to Theodora for 16gpt.
IBT Vikings and Germans ally against the Iroquois.
Nineveh: bank=>settler
Eridu: settler=>cathedral
1. 760 AD Spend 44G rushing culture.
IBT Tell Wilya: Library=>temple
Mari: temple=> cathedral
2. 770 AD Rush a settler and library
IBT Uruk: settler=>temple
Zariqum: Court=>cathedral
Telloh: library=>worker
3. 780 AD Found Nina. Well, I now know that our rep is shot. People go from insulted to never whenever I mention a gpt deal at the bargaining table. Time for theft. Approx. 2000G to steal a tech. The Iroquois are getting their heads handed to them.
IBT Renew peace with Theodora.
Nineveh: settler=>university
4. 790 AD Found Ebla. Found Grahamylon.
IBT Sumeria demands TM & 32G. Sure, by the way, heres your Moms skivvies, she left them under my bed.
Ellipi: Univ=>settler
5. 800 AD Found Gozpelabad.
IBT Germans start ToE
6. 810 AD Figuring well want to steal from one of the weaker civs, I spend 92G on an Embassy in Washington. Well need that for larceny. 8 content citizens and four clowns. Two luxes, four rifles and a treb as a garrison. 30% science, 10% lux.
We now know that the Yanks are fighting the Iroquois also. No wonder Hiawatha is losing.
IBT Babylon: Univ=>coliseum
Ellipi: settler=>coliseum
Hareid: market=>settler
Shuruppak: pike=>pike
7. 820 AD The Byzantines are also fighting the Iroquois, because they now own Niagara Falls. Hiawatha is down to eight cities, looks like they lost three last turn.
IBT Izibia: worker=>cathedral
Adab, Telloh: worker=>temple
Germans build US
8. 830 AD Found Bugsylon.
9. 840 AD Spend 52G on a library
IBT Germans & Iroquois sign a peace treaty.
Hareid: settler=> univ
Nippur: worker=>cathedral
Khorsbad: library=>temple
10. 850 AD Found GRSarra.
After Action I have most of the workers stacked into 6 worker-turn piles, a couple of stragglers.
We're about halfway to having enough cash for a steal.

We have a strategic rail net pretty much in place now. I should have mentioned that. Now we just have to balance increasing military with increasing culture.

Got it!
We should probably use the vikings as a steal target. If they declare we can at least take Molde. Do we want to go for industrialization for factories or electricity - replaceble parts first?
Edit: About stealing. We are making 163 gpt - probably rising to 200+ soon when some deals expire. That will allow us to make a safe steal every ~15 turns. But I would rather use our cash now to rush at least the basis cultural buildings (temples and libraries) everywhere and at least some advanced ones too. Else I don't see us cathing up fast enough in culture. Rushing a temple costs us 116 gold, a library 156 and even universities and cathedrals are not that expensive.
So what I am proposing is burning at least the next 2 - 3k gold for culture. Then accumulating some gold for steals and build military. I will try to grab some of the empty spots in former Russian lands before the AI does, too.

We have put off culture for too long. We need to rush at least a temple and a library in every town. When a town has both we can start building military units there. Then we can go after Germany. If we don't get the culture moving now, you can write off a 100K victory.

950AD-0 Us 8762...Germay 33607 Get rid of a few taxmen. Move Trebs to Akshak. Turn off always Renegotiate Deals. End turn.
IBT Sumerians bring in the Vikings against us. A passing Berzerk kills our elite Bowman to capture Alesund.
960AD-1 Tell Wilaya temple-->cathedral New Babylon library-->cathedral New Ellipi temple-->library Recapture Alesund and 6g. Only the Market remains. Pick up 2 slaves near Akkad. Spend our money.
970AD-2 Nineveh colosseum-->calvary New Nineveh temple-->library Kkhorsabad temple-->cathedral Upgrade our thre knights. Should have done this last turn. Our nest to worthless army loses 9hp killing a vet who left Molde. Our Cavalry kills a rifle appraoching New Ashur. Find 2 pikes to upgrade.
IBT Iroquois and America stop fighting. Disease strikes Nippur.
980AD-3 Upgrade our trebs to cannons. Shuffle troops around. Upgrade a catapult. Upgrade another pike.
IBT Ragnar uses a RoP with Germany to take/kill 3 workers. At least the coal was connected first. Sumeria drops off 5 Cavalry near Carchemish. Byz kills the Iroquois.
990AD-4 I ask Brother Gil if we can end this silly fighting (before we lose a few cities) and he agrees. Actually we can get 20g out of the deal. It appears he is also fighting Germany. Without the ability to get techs with GPT deals on our own, he gets 141GPT for Industrialization, TM and 3g. He is down to there towns.
Our 3 cannons take the rifle from Molde to 1HP. Our MDI cannot kill the rifle. An E Bowman does the job. Need to use two Cavalries to kill a rifle near New Babylon (one retreated). The last healthy Cavalry only takes one hp off the rifle set to pillage our coal. Fourth Cav and horse army are healing this turn.
IBT The rifle retreats to German land instead of pillaging our coal. Byz declares war on the Germans. The second story of the East Wing is finished.
1000AD-5 Move troops to heal or approach Karasjok. Upgrade another musket. Rush some culture.
IBT Ragnar sucessfully captures New Ellipi with a German RoP attack. See some German Panzers.

V Calvary kills first rifle 3-0.
Horse Army defeats 2nd rifle 2-6 to take the town, barrack, slave and 1g.
Move to protect cities and reclaim New Ellipi. This isn't easy with a total of 26 units covering 36 cities. WW is starting to bother a couple of towns. Rush some culture. Move settler to Babylon until we have a place for him.
IBT See stack of 28 Middle age units heading our way.
1020AD-7 Smolensk cathedral-->barrack Ellipi bank-->cavalry Bugsylon library-->cathedral Kill the 2 knights in New Ellipi to reclaim this cultureless town. Lose a cav attacking a 3hp rifle near the town. 2nd cav retreats doing no damage to a 2hp rifle.
IBT Ragnar moves 77 units within 2 turn turns of New Ellipi and Nipur.
1030AD-8 OUt of sheer deternimation I fire the cannons on only on hits. I only have the horse army to attack a 3hp rifle. Time for peace. Believe it or not, we are doubtful for their city of Aarhus. Now for the tough decision. He does not have Industrialization. It will buy us PP, Nav, Eco and MT. On the other hand, to get Nationalism, we need to kick in 109GPT. IS Nationalism worth 5000g? Not in this game. We can research it in 30 turns for 75GPT. Peace, WM, PP, MT, Eco, and Navigation for Industrialization and 15GPT. Rush some culture.

In fact it is both. From civlopedia:
There are always two, and sometimes three, candidates. To be a candidate in an election a civilization must, either:
* have built the UN.
* control at least 25% of the world's territory.
* control at least 25% of the world's population.
If only one civilization is eligible, then the second candidate is the civilization with the largest population.
Edit: Germany is largest and biggest and we are probably 2nd in pop, as Germany has 42 and we have 22. That leaves only 36 for all others. But we are not on the diplo route (and we trashed our rep), are we?
