@NobleZarzon I wrote without knowledge of this specific game. Now, I have done some exploring.

Opening appreciation. Is there, here, a rare reason to burn a turn by settling 1N? Two. More river tiles and the resource is not lost. Inland Sea maps? There is , in my experience, one chance in three you'll have a distant competitor on one flank. An early rush means you are really going...

Monarch/Normal. Huts&Events. 1200 AD.

Monarch/Normal. Huts&Events. 500 AD.

Monarch/Normal. Huts&Events. 975 BC.
