Is that forest or jungle south of the start in 5?
I too vote 4. Coast, river, fish, hut.
1 would be viable with luxury but the desert makes it really bad... 3 has the FP wheat, but as with most FP cities, it'll be shield-poor.

Well, if allowed to participate in this game, I favour save #4 due to the river, fish, BG, hut and forest.
As I never played an expansionist and militaristic civ, I do not really now what the immediate priorities are at the start. Could somebody point that out? (Quickly establishing cities, like with all the other civs, seems obvious, but what is/may be different?)

Since we're expansionist, we should pump out a few scouts early, and develope a warmonger strat in the early MA, since we will trigger our GA with keshiks around then.

lurker's comment: I see through the fog on start#4...a lot of jungle.

After closer inspection, that last comment seems to be very true. 
Go for save number 3?

Can we roll some more starts? It IS a higher level than we're used to and the RNG was not very kind to us this time

I'd give JB another day or so. He was online on the 28th so should be back soon.
Instead of rerolling saves
I've seen some SG's (I think LK did this) where each player rolls up their own start and plays the first 20 turns. Then they post a screenie and some details (contacts, techs). Then they decide which save to play. But it's up to JB since it is his game. But if JB doesn't get back in the next day or so this could be a good way to kick off the game.

lurker's comment: i would suggest EACH player does the first 20.
you should add a DETAILED turn log with a reasoning for your actions.
details should include:
where you settled and why
what did you set your research to and why
what where your builds, in which order and why
who did you meet, where and when, and any trades you did with the reason for said trades.
these are all basic training game doings, and should help your start game skills.
when all have posted thier saves (with pics of course) you should discuss them.
you should also add a dotmap for future city builds.

Sounds like a good idea. Nevertheless, it won't be till tomorrow (or even Thursday's) evening that I can play and, subsequently, post due to uni assignments. 
What are the game details?
- C3C 1.22
- Emperor
- Mongols
-? What kind of map?

My thought was a standards continent map.
Standard Pangea also works for me.
Sorry to be absent from the thread. A little bit of RL got prinkled on me. I washed it off in the swamp.
Also, I'm stuck in a training class all week and my typical thread browsing time is severely curtailed.

You're in. Getting experience was the genesis of this game so you can't be denied.
Welcome.

It sounds like we're conflicted on a start. I'll roll a few, and everyone here is alsow welcome to roll 'em.
BTW, all the starts I rolled were standard continents, sedentary barbs. Normal agressions.
