16+ player: The Civant Alliance - SPOILER

Did some testing (it's been sooo long since I started a Civ game) and it looks like two warriors is the way to go, then either warrior, granary or settler.
- with a 3rd warrior that would mean we can spare the second one for exploring (since we need at least two for defense), then the other two for happiness.
- I prefer granary as well, the problem is that a standard-sized map with 8 players is pretty crowded so we have no idea how close the others are. Otoh with two warriors we should be save
- If done right a settler can be the most beneficial, especially if we have more than two bonus ressouces in the core.

And since we are playing at Emperor level exploring may even give us some techs/units.
