Chieftain
Game Settings:
Civ: Indonesia
Map: East Asia True Start
Pace: Epic
Difficulty: Settler
Disaster Difficulty: 4
No Barbarians.
So my problem is that i am having trouble determining what is the best way to start out with this Civ on this map with these settings in Gathering Storm.
The problem is that it starts on an island, surrounded by volcanoes, with not much room to expand. I could move the city one tile to the southeast or 3 tiles to west, but either case would put the city center within 1 tile of a volcano which would really hamper growth if it erupted a lot. Second, i could rush for shipbuilding so that i can embark settlers into the water to settle the other islands, but that would take a long time and it means skipping a lot of technologies that would help out. It might also cause me to lose the race to religion which would kind of hurt since Indonesia can buy ships with faith.I've tried many options to see what is the best, but none of them seemed to work that well.
So does anybody have any advice on how to start in these conditions?
