So Venice.
I'm planning to breach Immortal with Venice since they are probably the easiest Civ to play.
So biggest questions in order:
1. Under what circumstances am I "allowed" to reroll?
Since Venice will only ever found one city that city should probably be in a petty damn good location. What do I "need" to start with (apart from a coast being an obvious necessity).
2. Should I beeline Banking before Education...or not?(awkwardness: Education is needed for banking. Just scratch this, lol)
Obviously I want Forbidden Palace above all else, since I will have a hard time taking the city in which it would be.
3. How to properly use Merchants of Venice?
When I hover over science or culture, it says every city or puppeted city increases the cost of the next policy or tech, also it decreases the number of city states that I could buddy up with. So I'm somehow tempted only to use them on trade missions, maybe 1-2 at the beginning can buy CSs, but not more.
4. What early game wonders should I aim for?
I believe Venice would massively benefit from the Colossus, the Hanging Gardens and the Oracle. Can I grab at least 2 of these on Immortal? (especially the Colossus)
5. Anything else to bear in mind?
I know it will probably be an easy game, but any advice is welcome none-the-less.
