"Noble Difficulty, One City Challenge. Won an Ambition Victory in 145 turns.

The Greeks (Dark Blue) to my to my left waged war against me 4 times, which is probably inevitable given their limited land outlets. I was also hogging all the nearby city sites, since I didn't want more AI cities near me.

I recall the first 3 times the Greeks declared war on me, they had a stronger military score. But every time, I would switch all my production into rushing military (training and units) and hold my ground with the defensive advantage of easily accessible healing. The last war was an opportunistic one, since they entered war with the Assyrians (Orange); I took the chance to wipe them out.

By the end of the game, the Kuch (Yellow) had 34/36 victory points, but I squeaked out a victory. I had 33/36 victory points, but no way to get anymore, since every wonder in the game had been built by then. Thankfully, I was never aiming for a Points Victory."
