That is probably my favorite setting for a nice easy relaxed game. You can slack off, build any wonder you want most of the time, and pick when you want to have a war. Emperor isn't that hard but you need to be ready to go to war often and at the drop of a hat...I just feel like building stuff most of the time It really stresses me out when I find that my neighbor has something I need on Emperor because as soon as you find out you have to drop everything else you were doing then attack him.
