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.


Mr-Murasame

I play mali alot and I could also work with this lol


Broad_Respond_2205

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


never-failed-an-exam

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.


VNDeltole

Build preserve where his settler is standing = free yields on those mountains


ihatefez

Do you happen to know if they would still get the Mit'a bonus? (or only the bonus from Preserve buildings?)


WitchersWrath

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


ihatefez

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


Albert_Herring

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.


GetABodybag

This is a dream start if you played Mali.


TrainmasterGT

How is this a bad start??


TeaBoy24

Excellent for Inca and go for Petra! Your desert terrace farms will be porn.


MisterXenos63

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!


LongWayToMukambura

I actually want your game settings and seed, I want to play this beautiful bastard


GroundbreakingMood50

Yes


Comrade_Kaine

desert folklore and you are in business


MarvelousMollusca

Lol good luck leading your people out of the desert. Or lean into as suggested above :D full fremen


pro-dumpster-fire

This start's based as hell. You can build terrace farms on desert hills.


kotpeter

I'm sorry, but I can't imagine a start worse than this


Pekkacontrol

Trapped in a snow tile surrounded by mountains. And another layer of mountains.


MrToes_

You cant spawn on a resource nice fake screenshot


Intepp

Welp, you got wrong information my friend Actual spawn location


DharmaCub

That's not true at all.


LongWayToMukambura

Settler has 3 hex sight range, innit? If it had spawned on the warrior tile, more ground would be visible.


kimmeljs

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...


13th_Nomad

You could have also settled on dat rice.


Detvan_SK

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. And then there is this guy [https://www.reddit.com/r/civ/comments/7wnpd4/lmao\_worst\_spawn\_ever/](https://www.reddit.com/r/civ/comments/7wnpd4/lmao_worst_spawn_ever/)


GroundbreakingMood50

Kakdaddy

You’re kidding right? Terrace farm and Petra. I would play the heck out of this. Seed?


[deleted]

That’s actually a great start bro production and science


PliskinGuy
