I have been giving the other maps a try lately and came across the fantasy map. Now this map is incredible easy if you pick a financial civ. Start a game and check if there is at least 1 oasis in your BFC. These babies supply you with 4 food and 3 commerce of the bat and some even with an extra hammer. If you have 2 oasis in your BFC it virtually means a tech lead from turn 1 on. This is just a tip for the players who have troubles with the normal map and need a little boost to start with.
