OK, you baited me into installing K-Mod. Well done.
Hehe, yea. And it's the proof, that we can get construction some turns earlier. I think about some cases: What, if the AI has not let it bait out and what, if the AI has build much more archers and had built walls? Or when Augustus had Iron and whipped 1-2 spearman? Then an attack of this form had a problem. So what had you done in this case?
In my game I had the opportunity to spy him to attack at a time, when victory seems makeable.
What do you do, when your opponent seems unexpected strong in defence, and you didn't saw it because you had no possibility to look inside him?
I see my game a bit in this form: Get information first and attack, when u know, that you will win (then maybe a worker-stealing is weak cause we miss the chance of open borders).
Thanks. Yea, I also assume, that the K-Mod AI ist building much more troops, but therefore lack in development. The overflow mechanic seems other than thought at first. When whipping the warrior I got some little overflow.
I should play normal BTS again. The K-Mod-AI seems not much stronger.

For future please let's give in some
feedback more about future than about mistakes of the past (cause future decisions can still changed, past ones not). I now have the question where and how strong to settle at the right places.
I now decide this way for integrity with former decisions:
- I do peace with Augustus, when he has a citx with size 1 or too many archers inside or the walls cause conquering later and settle elsewhere seems stronger. Augustus falls with construction and catas.
- I think about going into war with Vicci to get the northern cities, not the southern ones. If she has interesting techs, I press 'em out of her before finishing
- I complete the ToA
- When a Great Priest is rising, I decide by maths: When I can bulb something really useful, that helps development and I save minimum 40 turns value of shrine, I do it. When not, I will build the shrine ; I wouldn't bulb theology, cause it doesn't help with astronomy
- I now go into a Conquest or Domination victory
Identified mistakes:
- ToA seems not strong enough and has serious disadvantages, 2 HAs instead would be better
