      I I disagree, asbolutely Imune to barbarians or ever loosing his capital.

      I think fishing and sailing should be top priorities though...

          I'm gonna download it and play it through, although probably at a lower difficulty, since I suck.

          ACK!

            If you do, go fishing first, then build a fishing boat asap using the forest hill while researching BW. Get a second fishing boat, and research sailing as the third tech. Keep on growing to size 4, slave galley, overflow to settler, you can get a warrior quickly as well to put in the galley along with the scout. Grow to size 6 or 4 and slave the settler, whichever is quicker. Plant city in best location-> Normal game.

              BW turns out to be not that important in this game. Because your start is surrounded by water, your territroy never expands past the city work area. No extra forests to chop.

              ACK!

                You could build other cities, you'll just need slavery to harness all of the sesafood in the capital.

                  I forgot about slavery.

                  I mean in the post, not in the game.

                    How do you play it at a different difficulty?

                      You'll evenually want to relocate the palace unless you've turned off vasals.
                      In any case your starting capital should build Moi Statues right after the workboats.

                        Wouldn't you want to get your scout, then a settler over to the mainland before Moai Statues?

                          Post the file's name here and I'll look into it
                          Sorry didn't reply here, but i my mistake was to try to upload the save file like i upload images, instead of attaching it directly to the post.
