Getting the DLC civs, needs strategies

If you're smart where you build, you could have interior (read: anywhere not bordering a coast) places to build farms and such. After, Moais can only be built on coasts. Also, if your game reaches by flight (In which I say you're doing it wrong), you'll be making a crapload of money with the tourism.

Oh tourism... thats why they get extra gold with flight.

Despite the world being absent of airports

I like that the Maori Warrior's trait stays with them when they are upgraded.

With Polynesia, if you're playing anything but a Terra map, you should avoid sending your land units out on their own. The improved vision is nice, but 2 movement on a seafaring unit is pretty weak. Polynesian triremes get to sail on ocean, too, so make sure to use them as scouts.

I got a crappy draw on a fractal map with Polynesia and ended up being stuck between Arabia and ice before I found any good islands to settle, which I might've been able to avoid had I used triremes ) :
