For this game I have to try the real strenghts of the Romans. The pretorians, an awesome offensive unit, it must be able to conquer the world with them.
Game plan:
Research Bronze working and build a worker first. Scout the area around Rome. Research Iron Working and build a settler next. They should be finished around the same time.
Look where the iron is, connect it and build pretorians. Scout in the meantime to find the AIs.
Make roads to them and start war with pretorians.
So far the theory, that's the actual:
Settle on place, start BW and worker

Start IW and settler

I did not build a third city. That would be a waste of time. just barracks and pretorians.
The first victim will be Spain.

In 625 BC Spain is eliminated and my pretorians are on the way to Germany.
