This is a spoiler.


















So I picked BC in the first round. From what I was able to read from spoilers. I should build a defence against chariots early in the game.

The settings are:
great plains, normal speed, normal amount of AI+2, prince level. everything else random

I got Zara Yaqob of the ethipian empire.
I'm Creative (+2cpt for cities, cheap libs, teathers, Coleseums) and organized, (-50% civic upkeep, Lighthouses, factory, courthouses)
I start with hunting and mining
My UU is an improved musket.

BC is Suleiman of the Ottomans
he is philosophical (+50% great person emergence, cheap universities)
and imperialist (+100% great general emergence, +50% settler build)
He is staring with Agriculture and the wheel, so he is only animal one tech away from building chariots.
His UU is also an improved musket.

Here is my start.

I move the settler 1E to find something. There is nothing good but it's not worth comming back so I settle.

I set my reseach on Bronze working so I can build 1-2 spears early.

But surprise, I find his borders on turn 11!!!!! Our capitols are only 12 tiles away !!!!

So for now it's MM the start, Now that I'm size 3, I'm switching my warrior to worker, if I have bronze, I will for agriculture get this wheat bonus and get a settler I need bronze.

Also I'm keeping 1 scout on the lookout for him (I got 1 extra in a goodie hut!)
