I had that same thing happen to me today.

Superior they said, never gives up her dead, when the gales of November come early!

Nice! Best I've had since the patch was 3 and I had to raze a settlement (which takes way too damn long!) and build a new one to get in range of all 3.

Wow! You still don't have the 2nd religious founder belief?

Nope, really not sure how that one is unlocked. I got my second one at around 70%

That's "Catholicism" that lives up to the name!

You definitely would have gotten it, makes me wonder if you can only get 1 of them?

Playing as Isabella of Greece and i settled in place on turn one, got to love it when i get a start location like this, currently turn 26.

Not really funny or strange, but unusual for me to get this lucky.

I gotta try Isabella some day, that's an amazing start.

I have a question though, why did you place that district where you did rather than using it to expand towards the camels?

it's a granary, the only other possible spot was next to the natural wonder/mountain and i want to save that for other buildings, coastal spot was at the time the least rewarding for other buildings/districts. I was also limited to how many resources i had available so i knew i had time to expand towards the camels in later turns once a had all the natural wonder yields .

Hoerikwaggo is easily an S-tier wonder imo - yields are pretty good, and you can get a whole +6 culture/happiness adjacency from it

Have had several games where I could see 'Distant Lands' across a tile or two of deep water, and one which I got a unit to the coastal waters around a Distant Lands island by displacement, but the definition of Distant Lands in-game seems to be See But Do Not Touch until Exploration, no matter what the physical distance is.

Especially with continents maps are smaller than my likings in 6

Do you mean lucky because of the natural wonder? So far I've started a lot of Isabella games, and almost always I got a natural wonder immediately adjacent. So much so that I think her starting bias is overpowered. In more than 3/4 of my games I started with Hoerikwaggo next to me, which is essentially starting with a food and culture buff. If you slot in the memento for gold per Natural Wonder tile, you also get 2 gold per tile extra.

I believe I've seen someone unlocking both. But anyway, this desperately needs transparent rules about unlock, explained in UI and making those believes easier to grab.

Yes thats what i was referring to, This is only my 2nd or 3rd game as her and the first time settling right by a natural wonder, not having to move was another bonus. I also discovered a 2nd natural wonder and was able to settle next to it with my 4th settlement, the additional production made it worthwhile converting it to a city and enabled me to build more wonders.

I'm currently playing only my second game as Isabella, and the first one I've played all the way to Modern Age (just started the Age last night).

The first game was what I consider typical of Civ (ever since Civ V, in fact): she was 'near' a Natural Wonder, but would have required me to move my starting settler and not even get started with scouts and such until the third turn. Typical 'starting bias' of Civ games - a mixed blessing.

Game I'm in now, my initial unit started one tile away from a Natural Wonder, which also blocked land access to the northern part of the peninsula providing a nice defensive bonus as well. 12 tiles away was another Natural Wonder, occupied by an IP which, by the end of the Antiquity Age, I had converted into one of my settlements. As Isabella, Fat City indeed.

Isabella then, is another of several Leaders with 'wonderful' bonuses - but only if the map cooperates. Getting that cooperation consistently has been a problem in Civ (especially Starting Biases) ever since Civ V as noted. IF your experience and mine indicate they've finally gotten a handle on that, the game is immensely improved.

I had a really fun game with Isabella just now - Started next to the Grand Canyon so I tried building a set of 4 relatively low urban density cities each with one grand canyon tile. Wasn't as effective as some of the science builds I've done, but I came into the 2nd age with a decent haul of "forever" science where the Grand Canyon supplied most of my beakers...

Exploration was entertaining, but as usual for Civ7 it felt like modern was pointless, and none of the civs felt like they'd be interesting, so I didn't finish it.

First time I've filled out an entire attribute tree! (Except for the level 7 unlock, but I got enough points I could've got it if I had it unlocked)
