'Jihad' scenario: Youssouf rules

[La Fayette]

Emir Youssouf has the great pleasure to announce that he rules the world .

This is the 'Jihad' scenario (CiC), played at deity level without caravan rehoming.
Victory (all objectives conquered) in 693.
Previous record held by Lars-E (victory in 716).

Same conditions: deity, no rehoming.
All objectives conquered in 662.

No special strategy, just crank out the Fanatics and overrun the map. Could've been done faster but I wasted a bunch of time getting to Samarkand.

Cranking out fanatics and trying to overrun the map is precisely what I did... but you manage to do it about twice as fast, and that is really impressive.
