Hello,
I've been attempting to conquer the game on Deity difficulty, but I've noticed that my population is a major obstacle in keeping pace with the AI. Despite prioritizing food production in every city and using cargo ships to boost food output, my city populations stay relatively low (between 7-10).
I've also tried maximizing my Tradition policies, but I can't build any wonders before the AI manages to do so (Suspended Gardens and Temple of Artemis are out of reach).
What can I do to improve my situation?​
