General tips:
Have 20-25 villagers gathering before advancing to classical
With all civs (except Thor) put several (7-10) villagers on food first, then alternate on gold and wold
Never let your Town Center (TC) go idle during archaic or classic; 35+ villagers is good to have by the end of the game
Fish if at all possible, it is a tremendous help, and you don't need as many foodies
Try to go with minor gods that have a tech or possibly a god power that would be useful for you strat or that particular game (don't usually pick based on the myth unit)
Don't get bogged down by one build or strat, try different ones and see what you like
For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works,
which God prepared in advance for us to do. -Ephesians 2:10
