So I always play on huge shuffle maps. When I want to play a Casual game that will maintain my interest, I knock off two AI civ's in the hopes that might give a little breathing space. Still tho, I go into every game knowing chances are good I'm going to be at loggerheads with an AI civ within the first 10 turns. It can be such a buzzkill .Time to start racing for military strength and settle spots, with the diff setting doing its thing. Some other civ will get the shot at those early wonders.
How close is too close? Eight tiles? Twelve? When does it feel like there's a fair amount of breathing room?
