Babylon
This one was horrific, and I must have tried 40-50 starts before I finally got it. The new research rates were the trouble, and meant that I was always struggling to get the Oracle, and take Monarchy from it for maximum growth, in enough time to grow before my population was measured at turn 84. When I could achieve that, my culture was always short of India (or somebody) and there was nothing I could do about it since I wasn't able to run artists, as I was still researching Code of Laws. I ought to mention that I was trying the peaceful approach, and also occasionally the attack on Delhi. I was getting better results from the peaceful approach ... marginally...
Finally got there - with a large slice of luck - and the strategy was this:
Warriors until size 2 and switched to Worker. Then back to warrior - granary - library.
Researched Pottery - Writing - Myst - Masonry - Medi - Priest.
Worker cottaged floodplain first (not stone!) then quarried the stone and finally the marble.
After library I built Stonehenge (using quarry speed) and then Oracle. It meant starting the Oracle 3 turns after I got Priesthood, which worried me, but it worked out alright with the Oracle completing at turn 75.
I waited until both wonders were complete before switching civics to HR and CS. I would have liked CS earlier but couldn't afford the anarchy.
Then maxed growth until turn 84, helped by Animal Husbandry allowing sheep health improvement. Reached size 7, which I didn't think would be enough, but it was. Lucky!
After that, used CS to run artists and count down to the Gt person popping. The odds were more than 60:40 in favour of getting a Gt Prophet, but when turn 94 came it was a Gt Artist
and I was able to blow my culture score over 4500 and achieve another part of the UVC.
Quite a subdued finish, as I calmly researched to the end of CoL, winning on turn 103.
Though in the meantime I completed the Pyramids, which I was only building to bring in a bit of cash when I failed
, and also gained the nearby barbarian city, and Jerusalem - presented to me by Cyrus (who had killed me in so many earlier attempts).
