Just a quick thought: I definitely think that we should research Agriculture after Bronze Working, by the way, (assuming settling on plains hill) just because we're going to need crops anyway.
With 2 workers first it'll help us put 2nd city online faster so this opening could be same or better overall by the T45-50 compared to 1 worker > Settler opening. We have to scout 2nd city location around T20 to decide. Good thing AH ETA is T20 for both of our sims.
I can see we go Agri before BW in certain situations. Such as good crop resouce(s) for 2nd city; Horses easy and fast to connect. Again, need scouting first, but we have time to decide with Mining ETA: T27.
Here improved sim with 2 workers before settler and Agri after Mining, before BW. PH plant.
- 2 Warriors on T17 and T26
- 2 Workers on T12 and T28
- Settler on T36. 2nd city could be planted same turn if 3 tiles away and preroaded.
- Agri on T37 and BW on T49. Could be T36 for Agri probably, if we lucky with specific contacts early. I'm sure BW due T48 is doable regardless.
