Before we get the screenshot we probably have some time to kill, so we could just bicker aimlessly ISDG-style or we could work out what our goals are at the start of the game...
Assuming a decent start with an Agri resource and lots of forests do we go for:
- Early religion
- Early Maths
- Early Settlers (then do we settle nearby for economy and solidity or far away to grab territory)
- Early workers
- Early army
I think the number of workers we need will be dictated by how much there is to do, but we'll aim for about two for each settler.
The settling pattern will be dictated a bit by resources, but on this size map and with cylindrical wrap we don't need to pack cities close together. (BTW I like the capital to share cottages with the first few cities and have out-of-sync whipping to keep working them all.)
We can revolt to slavery without penalty, so do we whip early and save the trees until Maths, or do we try to chop out as many settlers as possible early on?
We should assume Buddhism will go to someone bee-lining the Oracle, so Hinduism and Judaism will be our targets (get early org religion before we start building granaries and libraries?)
If we start by Commodore lets just build a ton of bowmen and go kill him. If we don't he'll come get us eventually anyway. (I'm only partly joking here!)
What have I missed?
