hi, i have played a couple games and so far have the basics down
my normal strategy is no matter what civ i quickly go for ironworking and monotheism...my thinking being i wanna see where the iron is to be able to make my second city near it, i do monotheism cuz i wanna found a religion for the perk involved, and i usually get beat to the earlier ones, so i'm stuck with judeism(which isnt a problem as i can get most to convert)
should i not rush these so quickly? i am going purely for score wins, as i am not confident enough to plan a specific path to victory
secondly i have been making my cities all pretty much the same, as i do not know what i should make where, so i tend to just make everything everywhere, should i make my capital city my military city? along what path should i follow here? and generally how many cities should i have, i keep reading that u should have fewer but good cities, whenever it seems i have enough, the adviser is always telling me to build a settler
lastly, i usually have no idea what i am researching, i kinda just wing it, can anybody give me a simple path or goal i should maybe try?
thanks
