Expansionist Civs and 1.17f

[Zachriel]

It appears that there is a much greater probability of getting settlers from goody huts. That makes Expansionist Civs much more powerful. I've been playing the English and I keep getting the following situation.

Now, I always make an extra scout or two at the beginning.

Yes, there is definitely an advantage for expansionist civs, now. I often will have a goody hut next to my starting location that gives me a settler when I plop down my first city. Never thought I would have 2 cities by 3900, or even 3950 B.C.!

But this is a problem if you start next to several other expansionists civs

expansionist + military AI civs... ouch...

This makes me real glad I like playing American.

I can't wait to see an Army pop out of a hut.
