Welcome to the first C3C SG run entirely on the Mac, in celebration of the much-anticipated Mac release.
We are Mac Mayaniac of the Maya, playing on Monarch level against 7 random opponents.
Map Settings:
Large map
Restless barbarians
Continents, 70% water
Warm climate
All other settings are default.
Here's our start:
A quick stop by F10 indicates that our opponents are the Aztecs, Iroquois, Dutch, English, Portuguese, Spanish, and Celts. Nice - 4 new civs, and 3 with major changes. No vanilla civs.
We've got a river, wheat, and gold. There also seems to be a coast that we could reach in one move, but that would take us away from the river and put the wheat and one BG outside our radius until the first border pop. We can irrigate the wheat and make our capital into a settler factory if we so desire.
Once everyone has checked in, I can play the first 20 turns, and then we can start on a 10-turn rotation.
Roster (based on signup order from the other thread and me starting)
Beamup
dojoboy
Serkhon
Blue Monkey
frunobolax
Aoxomoxoa
Standard 24 hours to post a "got it," 48 hours to play.
My intention would be to found on the spot. Moving away from the river would be quite painful for us, since it'll lose us the bonus city food until we get out of Despotism. The wheat and BGs are also an important factor. I would start researching Warrior Code at 100%, and get Warriors out for scouting while working a mix of BG for production and Wheat for growth.
Here's the save:
