how would you start here?
my 1st priority is location near river, 2nd priority natural wonder, 3rd priority near caves
prehistoric era
bc 199 617 (turn 1): https://i.ibb.co/4thDrYM/bc199617.png splitting first available unit to 3 smaller, setting highest speed and searching for good location, this time I will try to spend ~10 turns searching for natural wonder near river and caves (do you think it's worth it?)
bc 196 547 (turn 9): https://i.ibb.co/mF0jwK7/bc196547.png
I chose best location from map revealed within first turns, this one has river, natural wonder, coast and caves, the only disadvantage is that I don't know if it's water lake or access to ocean, what would be your choice of first city on this map?
bc 191 560 (turn 22): https://i.ibb.co/CKYQ8Xw/bc191560.png
researched cave dvelling to start building wonder, then language to create nature wonder building, doubtful if I should delay wonder construction, may be constructed by AI earlier. There is 2nd natural wonder in position that could be used by one city, but it's highly unlikely and would not have caves or river, so I think not worth searching for such location at the beginning, next research language for science buildings
bc 154 728 (turn 118): https://i.ibb.co/5rwbP63/bc154728.png
built nature wonder and cave wonder, then neanderthal culture, quite bad location (no bamboo or other landscapes needed for some early economy buildings), main unit (axeman from tribe village) is now lead by great general which increased power, are these myths different now? in the past they added 1 to science each, and now only 0.2, I think it's less important to hunt animals now, than in the past?
bc 111 373 (turn 231): https://i.ibb.co/5GkhYWS/bc111373.png
no cities around to capture, took first trait scientific I (doubtful if better than spiritual at this point)
