Help me destroy Japan on Large Islands

I never go to GL. My basic opening on island, without AI is : Scout -> Worker -> Shrine -> Finish worker -> Granary -> Library -> Second Worker if I have no CS neighboor to grab workers -> Settler -> Settler (if necessary and in tempo before NC) -> NC -> Settler if not build before and room.
Plant Settler when NC is over.
No monument, I go to full Tradition before Exploration/Rationalism.
You can have NC between T60/T80.
I start a game yesterday. I'm tech lead since T190, plastics at T200. It's a bad score : Only one lux, room for two cities, no lux in near tiny island, all other islands I discovered where full of AI.
I rerolled 3 games, had allways mountain for Cusco and enough hills around (except Aluminium appeared under my 4 food terrace farm :cry:).
I'll need to go for SV domination or Domination, cause I have Alex on the map.
