What the title says. I'm playing on Deity, now take a look at this start:
It looks good, right? And if I told you I had room for 6 cities in pretty good locations? And if I add that my closest neighbor is Mansa? This map HAS to be played, right? Well...
There are no horses or copper anywhere near my starting location. After 4 failed starts I managed to build enough warriors to deal with the barbarian archers, but then, aroun 1800 BC, a barbarian spearman appears and that's it, I'm gone. And Mansa didn't get Alphabet soon enough.
I don't think it's possible to win on Deity after wasting roughly 10 early game turns researching hunting + archery, is it? I personally never tried, for obvious reasons.
I'm attaching a save around 2300 BC in case anyone wants to see the map.
This game can be so frustrating some times .
