I just finished my first BTS game without unofficial patch.
Playing as Pericles on Monarch, I got a great start location on a big and small map. I could instantly recognize several key city sites. Military pump, 2 great science cities, GP pump and even a perfect choke point to stop Justinian who spawned south of me.
After blocking off Justinian I had to "share" with Tokogawa. Pumped Phallanx until construction, one round of catapults and Toky was begging for peace.
Consolidated, improved, specialized, maintained a significant tech lead ftw.
Conclusion: Never won a monarch game on warlords.
I could win about 75% of my prince games but that extra worker was just too powerful on monarch.
Now Monarch is a much more interesting and realistic difficulty setting.
