Pre-turn: Put a couple of entertainers to work and change a couple of cities to barracks. Buy 2 workers from Carthage for Philosophy and 114g. Change Izmit to worker.
750bc - IT warrior survives barbattack. Zulu builds Colossus.
Izmit worker -> temple. Change Aydin to temple so we can get the cow.

Great Library in 21 turns. Republic in 32t.
Every time Istanbul builds a settler, just put a citizen back onto the wheat and we have our 4 turn factory.
I played 10 turns and just now noticed the weird date. Next player can play 11 turns to even it out.
