Thanks for those links SevenSpirits, I look forward to checking them out. I don't often venture into the PBEMs (though I know I should). Based on the authors, I'm sure all three will be very educational.
I played around with some different opening options, and I think that our best bet will be AH (T14) => Mining (T21) => BW (T35). For builds, we'll go Worker (T12) => Quechua (T21) => Settler (T32). The Worker will farm the corn (T17), pasture the sheep (T22), farm the riverside grass (because we'll most likely settle 1N) (T27), Mine the grass hill (T32). Then we'll sit around for a bit until we can start chopping. Right now, I'm thinking city 2 will go 2S of where our Settler is standing now.
Here are some pictures of what I'm talking about:
