Unsurprisingly I settled on the elephants. The hut gave some cash, I didn't find any other one that I remember. I think the game is slightly harder than average, not too many other stellar sites apart from the capital, but then again, the islands down south gave some extra space and resources to settle. At 1AD I have 9 cities, 3 offshore. I landed the Great Lighthouse which commercially has saved the day. Planning to elepult the Persians, the Romans look a bit too strong at this point.
