The game went pretty well so far. I settled at the starting location and build a scout, monument and shrine. I delayed the granary for the shrine because I wanted an early religion. I got the second pantheon. I doubted some time but I picked Godess of Festivals, to get 1 culture and 1 faith from the abundant incense. I thought I needed culture as much as faith.
I started with the full liberty tree and founded two more cities, one near the ivory, river and desert and one on the coast near Lake Victoria. I can't see any more good places to settle for now. I used the Great Engineer that I got from finishing Liberty to rush Petra. That was about turn 96. Other wonders I got are the Pyramids and the Oracle.
I have now started on the Patronage tree and I am raking in crazy amounts of gold (about 70 per turn). Lots more than the other civs. So I started using gold to buy city states. Its all about having lots of allied city states for diplomatic victory, isn't it?
I am now in doubt about what my next goal should be: get to astronomy as soon as possible (to discover the rest of the world) or get to machinery first to get some crossbows for conquering Brazil? Brazil has to go, that is for sure...
