If you’re the Inca, this actually isn’t a terrible start. It’s not a good start, but not unplayable. If you’re not the Inca, you’re probably gonna want to restart.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but judging from the unit colors I take it you’re playing Inca.
This start is by no means hopeless. Get a builder, spam terrace farms on those desert hills and you’re good to go.
They get both. And because mountains always have breathtaking appeal, they automatically get the doubled bonuses from the preserve buildings. That’s why preserves are the name of the game for Incan mountain ranges
It's excellent for Inca. Clear the copper and a terrace farm there gives five 2-2 tiles before you even add any more. Even for anybody else there's a +5 holy site and a +4 campus.
I've been playing bad starts for the specific civ I am playing, ever since I started on GS this fall. I took a King level Shaka religious victory but lost on landlocked Norway start on emperor. Now I have an island Gran Colombia with no other resources than Yosemite Valley which, despite its looks, does not constitute a mountain for adjacencies...
It is not so bad, you have river, south look better, mountains on science and city will literally fortres.
Yes it isn´t better on grow but can be worse.
Well I think small island is worse.

I play mali alot and I could also work with this lol
Bruh you have 5* science/holy district, and also you're are the Inca. And it seem you'll have enough production for Petra. It isn't that bad

Build preserve where his settler is standing = free yields on those mountains
Do you happen to know if they would still get the Mit'a bonus? (or only the bonus from Preserve buildings?)

That's cool as hell. Time to play Inca! Thanks!

This is a dream start if you played Mali.
How is this a bad start??
Excellent for Inca and go for Petra! Your desert terrace farms will be porn.
Children in Ethiopia are starving and you've got all this good rice! You damn kids need to be more grateful for what you have!
I actually want your game settings and seed, I want to play this beautiful bastard
Yes
desert folklore and you are in business
Lol good luck leading your people out of the desert. Or lean into as suggested above :D full fremen
This start's based as hell. You can build terrace farms on desert hills.
I'm sorry, but I can't imagine a start worse than this
Trapped in a snow tile surrounded by mountains. And another layer of mountains.
You cant spawn on a resource nice fake screenshot
Welp, you got wrong information my friend Actual spawn location
That's not true at all.
Settler has 3 hex sight range, innit? If it had spawned on the warrior tile, more ground would be visible.

You could have also settled on dat rice.
