[GS] Industrialization in Classical Era (Turn 44)

[Zephidel]

Hi! I just want to share a strat (very unusual I think) to unlock Industrialization early.

In summary:
1. Have a team of 3 Babylon players.
2. 2 of the Babylon players will build the IZ on their 2nd city.
3. The 3rd Babylon player will build the IZ on its capital, and will receive the other 2 IZs via trading of cities with IZ coming from the other 2 Babylon players.

Here's the video detailing this plan and my attempt to do this strat:

Colour me stoopid, but I don't understand - 3 players all playing Babylon?

Yes. Just allow duplicate civs and leaders from your game settings.

So a hot seat teams strat. A nice thought.
Against an AI opposition you do not need it but it’s fun I guess.
Against another Babylon team you would die.
TBH you can get roughly the same result with the suze of Johannesburg +1 prod in a few mines per city....unless you are talking unpowered factories without Cardiff coastal.
