Not the first, but I usually don't play Legendary. I prefer the standard settings in that I think they're what the game is most 'balanced' towards, but sometimes I shake it up.Is this your first legendary game?
Let me know if Legendary Starts make it harder or easier for the player. I always play Sparse because I assume it makes it harder, but lately I've been thinking, especially seeing how the AI isn't very effective at trading uniques, that Legendary might actually make the game harder by making it easier for the AI
It is only my second time starting with a random civ though. I usually like to pick whom I'll play, but I'm loving the idea of just being given which Civ I'll be using.
I think legendary is extreme. Either it gives you a super-easy or super-hard start. On the other hand, abundant resources always make it easier. Since humans better exploit the map, the increase in the human player's advantage ends up being greater than the increase in the AI's.
ACTUALLY... there ended up being an about 16-tile desert to south-west of the mountain.In order to take profit of all the goody tiles in a passable timely manner, you need two cities. And that is where the problem lies: the secret south.
What if (in an extreme case) down there are only flat desert and resourceless coast / ocean tiles?!

The desert hills also ended up having Iron
