Looks like Lewwyn and I did it in PB15, also known as the game in which we made a sandbox and fake reported a failed warrior rush and getting our settler eaten in thread while we were playing a completely normal game otherwise, all in an elaborate attempt to troll lurkers.
I'm ready for the revival of the RB Gonzo Style of Reporting. Also, bring back strange experimental maps with gimmicks like no fresh water, obscure one-shot mods, ill-conceived variants bolted onto PBEMs, and acrimonious public diplo threads which bleed into completely unrelated WW games (and visa-versa!). Make RB Weird Again.

I'll take "rich middle region to fight over" for $400, Alex.
Need to figure out our growth plan. Simple least-time to size two, size two settler?
1h overflow does allow it; 4t on the sheep, 2t on improved wheat, has us reach size 2 and completing the warrior at the same time.

That has been my working plan since I saw the start.
Still want to settle the sheep? The grass hill is on the river but the plains hill gets 2nd ring wheat.
Let's bring our scout down there next

How about a city where our scout is? That would be instant connection, no?

Okay, we're finishing up the obvious stuff. Going smooth-brain simple, you have 9fhpt for 3 turns, then 11fhpt after, which easily nets a 10t settler. If we see horses where that makes sense to settle instead, Wheel next is a gimmie. If we don't want an immediate horse city, probably Mining->BW?
Exploration. Lotta nice food, less other resouces.

Lovely, this is our eastern neighbor.
Our horses are a *reach* away. City #6 or something, gross.
