So Ichabod can choose is leader and civ combination for the following:
Alex and Genghis are pretty much trash tier for this game, so they are out. Nappy and Justinian only make sense now if he has a Fishing start, in which case I expect Nappy, and Lincoln is perhaps not the most straight forward of choices depending on food so whilst I can see that pick if he has Deer and could go meditation first fairly safely, I doubt he picks that. So Augustus or Louis, really, and I think it'll be Louis and "Run to the Mids" strategy.
- Alexander (Agg, Phi) of China (Agriculture, Mining)
- Genghis Khan (Agg, Imp) of France (Agriculture, The Wheel)
- Augustus (Imp, Ind) of Babylon (Agriculture, The Wheel)
- Louis XIV (Cre, Ind) of Persia (Agriculture, Hunting)
- Napoleon (Cha, Org) of Rome (Fishing, Mining)
- Justinian (Spi, Imp) of Spain (Fishing, Mysticism)
- Lincoln (Chm/PHI) of Aztec (Hunting, Mysticism)
