Hurrah, my AU DAR #1 - difficulty Monarch
Edit: I originally posted this all the way to 1520 BC, but I decided to backtrack to 3280 and play with slavery a bit.
I chose Monarch as that is what I normally play.
Ok, start off, starting place looks great I can see desert to the east so plonk , there is Washington. I start on a worker straight off and research mining (guessing, correctly, that there would be some more trees around to chop given I have quite a few nearby) to do a standard bronze working/chop beeline.
Yes yes I plan to do the oracle civil service thingy but I like to get my chop on first.
I leave the nearby village for my culture to get, and send my warrior up north. Et voila, a few turns later:
I think I spent one turn on bronze working before I got it from the village
Anyway I move on to mysticism, figuring that the CS rush is well within my grasp now. I follow this route for a while now, mystic->poly->priesthood.
I turn the warrior away now, to come back in a loop to the right ( I like to avoid contact where possible, and its obvious there will be no goodie huts near the brown guys).
My worker pops out I set him off farming the corn straight away, and set a warrior building while I let my capital grow some.
Nothing much happens until:
Yay for blind luck so far.
Rest coming in a bit!
