Nowadays I mostly stay small perfectionist type when going for AC.Maybe 6 cities tops.The game moves much quicker without a zillion units to move and a slew of cities to manage.Following a OCC tech path(kinda) and I can finish an AC game in 1 evening (4-8 hours).I don't go on offensive wars.I don't explore much.Just enough to make contact and find somewhere to ship caravans/freights.For this plan map size doesn't matter.

I don't "waste" time with frivolous wonders.Just trade and science wonders.Small caravan builder cities get a temple and colliseum and stay size 6 or hire specialists in order to run 0 luxuries in Democracy or Republic.They may get a market and library later but my main focus is on the SSC.

Small map conquests can be done in 1 session also.Just think Chivalry.Be aggressive and you can march thru 7 civs(no restart) in a couple hours on average.

I read in the strategy forum where players have 150-200 engineers alone.50+++ cities and mega populations.That type of game WILL take a long time.

Most of the time I can get to AC with 1 city faster than I can with multiple cities.Against the ai,maybe smaller is better.
