I'd like to know: what early game start and strategy would give a player the best chance of winning when playing on Diety and a map like Big and Small, creating a powerful early game position?
Would it be maybe playing as Inca, starting with a good food source next to fresh water, with plenty of forests to chop, alongside close neighbours with good capitals to conquer?
Or maybe as Hatty or Darius, again with good food source and a source of Horses, to go on a War Chariot/Immortal rush?
Or maybe as Gandhi, starting with a lot of forests and a gold hill to mine, with a nearbye settler location to make a good specialist city?
Or would it be some sort of Industrious leader like Ramesses starting on a Plains Stone hill to build the Pyramids and start an early game specialist economy?
Or maybe it'd be Mansa Musa, starting with gold on a hill to mine, and a nearbye Civilization to do a Skirmisher rush against?
