Other than tech, which after it gets fixed ... ( i hope? kinda. ) this is the exact plan for turn 0.

Settle in place, move scout NW-NW

Hello! In this timeline, the Khans are actually Egyptian Gods, and are worshiped as such. A zero tolerance policy will be in effect regarding any other cultures we encounter.

Now that everything appears to be working properly, i begin by researching hunting for the obvious first improvement-Pigs.

Also, probably for the only time in this game, i am first in alot of the categories!

im thinking a decent 2nd city might be seen on the coast? right where that forest is near the scout. If there are any questions, dedlurkers, ect ect feel free to drop on by. smile

With high hopes, i moved my scout towards what looked to be coast. He found some clams in a lake, stuck there since prehistoric times. Included in these screenshots, are my ideas for city sites. my almost definite 2nd city will be on the forest northwest of the cap. Demos dont really mean much to be yet. I dont really know how much of a change going from 25 players to a 8 player match is, as far as how likely people are to rush, but i know ill be ready for any that comes. I honestly dont believe i will rush anyone unless they:

A- Settle up in my face or stake a claim in what i see as my immediate area.
B- Look really really weak and not posting much/not really into the game.
C- Do anything. mischief 

Questions for any lurkers- answer if you can. ( some might be me just being REALLY lazy )
Any meta game knowledge regarding Large field of players vs smaller field that they could spare?
What is the combat chance of a war chariot in this mod, vs an archer fully fortified on a hill?
Do you tend to always wait for the first/2nd settler before revolting into slavery, or is that just what i remember as being "ideal" micro from way back in the day?
Favorite comedian?
Is the war chariot considered better than the Immortal, or is it the other way around?
Am i asking too many random questions?
Can it stop snowing in April?

Moved scout, saw an excellent future city.

Spoiler for those that might be reading from pb38-
Instead of sending my scout(s) on long trips, im planning on taking a look around my cap for good city sites/chokepoints. 

Continuing to tech hunting, plan is worker-worker while researching hunting-mining-bronzeworking. worker 1 will do south pigs, north pigs, Mine plains hill. worker 2 will road till time to chop. Planning on a quick back to back settlers with an extra worker added in. Full farmers gambit to the greatest extent possible. Although ill still likely make at least one warrior to escort settlers.

Also, looks like someone is working im guessing a 1hammer 2 food tile? did they not start with a flood plain to work? Did not everyone get a plains hill plant for some weird reason? is this person planning on building a warrior while growing to size 2 to start a worker for some odd reason? ( a rush? ) if we start 14 tiles away from one another... i might have to be real wary about a warrior rush. Might not even be that bad of an idea with less people.

im going to assume this area to the east is a chokepoint, luckly with my sims im able to secure that chokepoint by turn 39 or sooner. Will post full sim soon. 1 turn away from mining, then im off to bronzeworking.

Tech plan is Bronzeworking- Animal husbandry-Fishing- then i believe pottery. from my sims i should reach a dominate/ top of the field amount of food/production very quickly.. providing i dont get rushed.

No idea if top 5 cities at this point shows Everyones at #1 for themselves.. or how its calculated as they are all 1pop..
