So Pericles of Germany. Pericles is an interesting leader, I haven't played with a Phi leader for a while, and have been liking Cre in recent games. Feels like a good mix of traits with implications early and late
Mali was my first option, and as I said when asking to reroll it, I didn't think its starting techs were going to work out with this start. I have a variety of food resources, all of which require a different tech, so I wanted to start with at least one of Agri/Hunting. Germany's Hunting/Mining are going to be fine
The reason I like RBMod Germany is that I'm a builder by nature, and tend to play peacefully until late in the game. Germany's bonuses come into play late, by the time when I'm ready to crawl out of my shell and go smash. Also cheap Cannons are awesome
Initial plan: research Agri - AH - BW - Masonry, build Pyramids, adopt Representation, get some land, get great people, research to late Renaissance/early Industrial era in peace, smash
