Well you can triple promote the archers with first strike bonuses (can't remember the exact name), so all you need to take over pretty much an entire civilisation is about 3 archers and 3 dogs, especially a human opponent who is more likely to focus on melee than archery units. However the copper thing throws a spanner in the works but the totem pole can equally be applied to get triple promoted xbows. But for the native americans, the longer the game continues the more obstacles there are unless you can take advantage of the philo trait
edit- be careful of that forested hill, if he does build anything better than a warrior and gets it there it'll be very difficult to move it!
