Hi,
Fun game with some potential to "bust everything".
SiP and Agri - BW. To wiph and chop.
I actually put one chop into 1st and 2nd warrior. Before improving second corn. Just because production is so slow early.
That helped with fogbusting and I had zero to no barb problems. rexed 2 cities.
Then Pottary - AH - Writing.
After seeing how weak William was I decides to do a HA with a math bulb towards William.
He got the GLH and was very slow with only 3-4 cities and seamed rather weak except his easy pillage copper and iron.. and ofc his elephants.
Got some decent trades from math, HRB - Alpha. Self teched currency.
Som furtunate religion got william as only hindu, so i could just attack and CS as i wanted to min/max the attack. Only pain was to kill elephants with HA.. but 1-2 to soften up worked just fine.
Ended with a peace deal with one city left. Got AES and calander.
Now wondering what to do.. guess just finish with some coastal cities. Cottage everything and prepare for currii or cav rush. Can really have a crazy tech game here. So space or even diplo might also be an option.
Read other games, and yeah.. really low happy cap on this map.
