But fate can be cruel. 
That's very true. I'm just thinking now of rego sitting there looking at a double wet corn, gold and plains hill start. Hopefully he gets hit by constant slavery revolts and I get...tin and truffles? 
Though I think I can get 3 workers and a settler out by eot t35. Makes me a bit less unhappy...

I just realized that the previous post is entirely unrelated to your actual start. I am just yanking your chain. So when I said I'm not cruel, maybe I was wrong?
I guess there will be plenty of time to ponder this, while you are waiting for your interminable builds to finish in your terrible capital, and your score settles deliberately into last place.

Post a sandbox once you have settled, I'd like to take a crack at it.
I haven't read the thread that hard yet so I apologize if any of this has been said before, but...
1. In BTS you'd start with a Scout, so its your own fault you have major guesswork  .
2. That tile 88 looks like Tundra to me.
3. Even the second ring looks completely forested, so I don't expect moving the Warrior to help in most cases. The exception seems to be 74 and 33, so I'd move the Warrior either 3 or 7. Actually 11 might be clear as well, but you'd never settle in that direction. I'd probalby move the Warrior 7, with the expectation I'll move my Settler 3. If you want more forests in the BFC, do the opposite.

What I wold give for EXP? Each forest would be worth an additional 7 hammers into a worker  What I would give for IMP? Each forest would be worth an additional 12 hammers into a settler  What I would give for SPI? I gain 8 production by saving a turn of anarchy.

Tile 8,8 looks like a hill to me since the trees are fading out at a higher Y position relative to those around it.

Yeah, it's a hill. It's the second of two hills that are in the starting area. It's also been named Darrell's Folly, but we'll have to wait for turn 1 for me to explain why

FML? Forested Mediocre Land? Sounds like the ideal name to me...
