Looks like a good attempt at stopping the player form moving =)

A good time to try a hunting civ.

Aztecs, Mali, Mongolia all have early bonuses.

Ethiopia, Germany, Russia and Khmer have perfect techs but their abilities are later. Probably too late for this game.

Also an interesting choice might be Maya for cheap happy and beastly holkans.

Im really bad at checking the forums lately.. Went with Mongolia because it looked like a ton of fun.

1. You dedlurking?
2. Need an official naming scheme. Currently going with our solar system starting with The Sun.

Hoping border pop shows a good 2nd city location.

That seems like a very pessimistic naming scheme, surely you need more than 9-1/2 cities to win lol

I'm dedlurking and I am 100% behind the naming scheme.

We seem to be of a similar opinion. There is not much synergy with aggressive Mongolia but it looks like fun.

Are the starts mirrored?

Otherwise, do you plan to use the marble? Chopping out an early oracle looks easy with this start but it is not the ideal tech path.

The most probable second city location might be along the river valley, I see at least 1 flood plain there and the rest of the land looks to be very poor. I get flashbacks to our last game. There is no resources sharing with that city though.
