This start was so AWFUL I HAD to play it - Civ 6 Scotland

[PaulStelmack]

Gets Scotland, immediately spawns in a Par 5 sand trap next to a water hazard.

"...and a legendary start position" he said, without knowing it would be legendary but in a different way

[slapdashprints]

I once had a start on a flood plains and spent a turn just trying to move to the other side of the river, and then my settler died from a flood ending my 2 turn civ game.

The AI's definition of legendary start position is nothing short of astonishing. I guess it's legendary if you somehow survive?

[JanusDarke]

There should be a Bad Start playlist/series not just to watch Potato struggle but to show everyone how you can get out of it... or die trying.

[Xaphe]

Making the most of relatively inhospitable terrain on the outskirts of the main land mass. Sounds like the perfect Scotland play through!

[zdavis]

Ah I finally see Stirling’s natural beauty, with its sprawling deserts and windswept swampland

[TurtleLover]

Because of you, Potato, I started playing out every awful start I get and there’s no feeling like beating the odds and finding a way to pull it off. Unfortunately, 90% of the time the AI just decides I’m not worthy of my lands.

[TheDarthChief]

Tato started out as a city state. Truly legendary.

The real question is, are you going to be glad if you build the venetian arsenal?

“My plan is to scramble, and just… eek out an existence on the edges of society.” Is this just Scotland in a nutshell (Scottish don’t take offense pls)

[Futre]

Not just the poor location but the fact that you got boxed in after like 5 turns was imcredible. Honestly, your enthusiasm is amazing. I would have rerolled and even if I hadn't when I saw I had a sliver of the island and was jammed behind a CS and an opponent I would be rerolling. Putting yourself into these positions has made you a much better player. Good stuff.

[gordonlipford]

Came for the cursed start played with gusto and pizazz, stayed for the unexpected and surprisingly good Bane impression. Lova ya Potato!

These starts are so much more fun to watch then perfect starts. When Potato has to scramble immediately and play perfectly to even get in the running to win. Also, Potato McBane was S+ Tier content.

[beifnehxior]

Truly, one of the start locations of all times
I really admire you, I never won a Deity game, I always leave my saves halfway through the game
Thanks for the content bro

There is no way he will not be stomped by elephants

[bigfudge]

You should have put the Harbour below your city instead, it would still be +3 and you could build the mausoleum on a desert tile instead, then you get to keep the grassland marsh tile (+3 food) and eventually put a golf course on it so you would get the extra culture because it is next to your city.

I love civ and i really enjoy 6. But I work 60hrs a week and have very little time for such a high time investment game. And all my friends have the attention span of a gnat so I always play it solo. But watching your videos makes me feel just like I am playing it myself. The editing, pacing, and commentary are great. Thanks a ton for the hard work in the videos.
