Also disagree with the folk saying you will need to focus on naval power. For the first third of the game the only thing patrolling the seas are the random trireme. Assuming you can get the bonus for settling on any land off of the coast, you could potentially set-up some very powerful cities just by researching embark. Luxuries are the number one thing that allows you to expand in the early game and getting them for free, if the map allows, is huge..
Yep, happy is the biggest killer for me once I've got my first couple of cities up. If I can get those cities founded on an island with at least one other lux, I'm doing it, even if its a single tile with just the lux. I really want to see how this plays out, especially with the ability to export/import food and production between cities.
