Mali is becoming more interesting. Pro/Ind means you have your Ind leader and we have an early game trait to go with it. It works anyway (here going agri->AH->BW, worker->warrior->settler, worker farms then mines then camps (on the perfect turn)).

Ok fishing is actually more important than I thought, sorry for bashing you on that. We have no time to tech it but it allows us to go worker->WB->warrior->Settler at size 4 which is pretty great.

Overall I think it's between Mali, the fishing/mining civs and the agri civs. New order of preference : Mali (to be paired with Ind/Pro Qin) then maybe England (fin is best) and Sumeria (Ind/Org Roosevelt).

Unfortunately, I am not able to acces the Civilopedia til tonite. Are you say that to get that start we would need to start with the Fishing tech? It only took 7 turns last game IIRC. Also can you post a link to your save so I can sim tonite as well?

I am still hoping for Stalin, so I think Mongols would be our best bet. But if Fishing is required to start I would need to check it out tonight.

I'm really not interested in Protective but I would have to look at the benefits of that as well.

Without fishing we can't go worker->WB which is a pretty nice start. If we start with Agri we can go AH->fishing->mining->BW but it still doesn't leave a lot to do for the cap. Everything else either forbids using the crabs or makes BW come way too late.
Here is the sandbox I've been using, with 8 different starting civs (all the agri, plus all mining civs except min/myst) with the right capital terrain.
I'll give you the saves too (actually I'll replay them).

Pro gives double production of granary (pretty huge) and drill/city defense to archery/gunpowder units. Skirmishers with drill are great for choking or defending far off city plants.

Well if you want Stalin more than Qin it's not that big of a deal, skirms are great anyway.
