imgur.comThis is the Amazon map, right? Fun for the Dutch w/ all of the swamps, but the early game is slow and there's so little production :/

It was a fractal map.
Edit: I lied, it was indeed Amazon Plus.

Interesting. I've only ever seen those huge expanses of marsh on the Amazon map before.

You should've put trading posts in those jungles, they give great yields. Also this is insane.

Was going to post this too. If you're going for a science win, it's even better with Rationalism!
7
To be fair, every victory is (effectively) a science win. Always put trading posts in your jungle. Always take Rationalism.

Agreed. Even when I'm ditzing around doing something way out in left field, I'll at least go rationalism to secularism at earliest convenience.

As a Nation we decided to forgo the extra money in exchange for keeping our natural resources as pristine and free from human interference as possible. Notice that we came in 2nd for GNP, right behind the behemoth that Austria became late game.

Polders for the Polder God!
Tulips for the Tulip Throne!

That...Is...Beautiful... Some Trading Posts in the jungle and you'll be and rolling in the gold.

You say it like Polders don't give 2 gold each already.

See my flair.

Polders for the polder god!

That would actually be a pretty shitty start if you weren't playing as the Dutch.
If only there was a pantheon that gave faith for marshes...

The Dutch are straight up OP on the Amazon map.

late game, Brazil doesn't do horrible either... Brazilwood Camps always do me good!
-
2 food
-
2 science (after university)
-
2 gold
-
2 culture (after acoustics)
And if you add in some not commonly used religious policies to help out your production, like:
-
Sacred Path (+1 culture from jungle tiles)
-
Religious Community (+1% production per follower, up to 15%)
Then later on add these to every city:
-
Broadcast Tower (+4 culture, 33% culture increase)
-
Hotel (50% of culture from Wonders and Improvements is added to the tourism output of the city)
and you wait a few turns, and bam, you won a culture victory! Least, that's what I've been doing lol

Do you have the save?

My God, its full of polders!

But where are your jungle trading posts?

The great swamp... if only there were dark souls civs :(
I can just imagine the UA silver knights with a lighting spear ranged attack... if only...

I never get any marshes as the Dutch :(

HOW are you not first in crop yield?

Much Marsh, Such Polder WOW
What difficulty is the map on?
EDIT: Nevermind I see in the r/civsaves it says immortal. I've never played on Immortal but maybe I can win a game on it with a start like this.

Trust me, it's very easy

I just beat immortal for the first time this week. DON'T SHORT CHANGE ME DAMMIT.

I still only win about half of my king games. :( While my Prince games are a almost 100% win.

How could there be an Ancient Ruin that far into swamps? What were they Marshians?

Ow, my funny bone.
maybe not always a swamp, but once a lush fertile fields of grain and naked women
