(Assuming Quick Pace)
Let's say you spawn in an all out jungle...obviously one of the first things you want to do is get bronze working and clear off the hills so you can have at least some production.
But it's going to take 20 turns or so to steal a worker and get it back to your base. And even then, its going to take a few more turns to clear off your first jungle tile.
Or even if there aren't any hills, plains, or bonus resources anywhere...this makes it to where it will take a long time to finish building national college among other things.
Do you consider going Liberty instead of Tradition (for that one extra shield and a much-needed starting boost)?
