Well, if one takes Nationalism with Liberalism and researches or trades for Music, there would be only two techs left towards cavalries. Gunpowder is cheap and though Military Tradition has to be self-researched in any case (because it cannot be popped with a great person at this point), it might be decisive in this game considering a rather retarded state of the other continent. If you can do it fast enough, it might be even worth whipping a number of cavalries here and there. They can be delivered to the other continent at a rate of 3 units per turn with a galleon chain. So, it might very well be that the game is decided within the next 20 turns.
