Yeah, so I finally messed around with this Vicky save:

What you cannot see is that 2W of the lake tile is another grassland/hill gems, and 1E of the lake is a grassland iron that will be revealed eventually. I think every land tile is grassland, and there is an abundance of choppable forests. That start is just sick.
I only wish I could play it on a higher difficulty because on my Emperor game I can pop Liberalism and no one else has Paper or Guilds yet. And I have Mausoleum, enough great people for two Golden Ages saved up, and will easily get Taj. It seems pointless to keep playing with a massive tech, GNP, land, pop, food, and production lead, and 36 turns of Golden Age to come.
Glad we didn't play that start for SG3. Way too easy.
