(Assuming you're not playing at a difficulty too low for you which lets you turtle and still have a tech lead.) Assuming you have to defend yourself eventually, the determinative factor is really the terrain rather than your civ - a nice choke point will let you turtle up well for a diplo or cultural victory, while wide open expanses will make it hard with any civ. So what are your opinions?!? who's best cut out for his and why? This of course is assuming he starts in a good forest, his would be interesting to try to see how it goes. He saves money on roads too which is good for GPT (though not great with a small empire). Food wouldn't be nearly as big of an issue for his production cities either, which means he should be able to build up a solid foundation very quickly.
Native America: I haven't thought much about this, but given a large forest at the start, his huge production bonus from the longhouses will allow him to build wonders probably just as well as Ramses, if not better. But you don't have to worry about getting caught up in as much political drama with fewer city states to protect. Siam: Similar to Alexander, differences being it's more expensive to sustain the bonuses from Patronage (as they won't double like the natural bonuses do).
Personally, I think Alexander might be the best for this strategy. Greece: Sit back, farm gold, get patronage, and let city states pump every bit of your economy full of steroids. Which kinda makes it the wild card of racial traits, as you have first dibs on any bonuses your situation requires. India: The obvious choice due to happiness, but his other bonuses kinda suck imo, I'm not sure if it's really worth it.Įgypt: The burial tomb awesome for keeping your GPT and happiness up and the racial trait, combined with the wonder bonus in tradition, makes wonders your **female dog. Also specialists receive no bonus in a golden age. Now I'm not so sure if this tactic is really optimized for such a small empire, as fewer people mean fewer tiles worked which means the golden age isn't as strong. I figured I would focus on happiness, take Piety and Freedom civic branches, and try to sustain a constant golden age supplemented with great people. I grabbed chicken pizza, so with Darius' ability, I now have 100% longer golden ages. Persia: This is the Civ I picked for my first try. I was wondering which Civ you guys thought is the best for this, from what I gather, the candidates are. I also intend to play as peacefully as possible. After playing a 130 hours and always having huge sprawling empires, I've decided to switch it up and am now trying to build up rather than out with few cities (no more than 5).
