The Antiquity Age Get Rich Quick Scheme! | Civilization VII - Deity Difficulty Challenge - Part 1

Civilization VII is finally here and we dive in to attempt to build a civilization that can stand the test of time, or that we believe in, or whatever the tagline is this time round. Oh and yes you read that correctly, we are playing on Deity Difficulty... oh dear...
There's quite a few changes in this game of Civ to the previous ones so we try to go through them as best we can.
The first big change is choosing our leader and then our civilization, because these are now separate entities! We choose Amina to head up the Aksum civilization with the idea being to earn lots of money, lots and lots of shiny gold, so we can just keep buying things we need rather than having to wait for construction.
We dive in, set up our capital and then go for a nice explore around the very beautiful landscape. We find resources, coastlines, enemy scouts and eventually our closest neighbouring civs!
As we try to enact our get-rich-quick scheme we also have to rush a settler out to get a new city up and running in a key area, rich with resources, but will this annoy the nearby civs?

The award-winning strategy game franchise returns with a revolutionary new chapter. Sid Meier's Civilization® VII empowers you to build the greatest empire the world has ever known!
In Civilization VII, your strategic decisions shape the unique cultural lineage of your evolving empire. Rule as one of many legendary leaders from throughout history and steer the course of your story by choosing a new civilization to represent your empire in each Age of human advancement.
BUILD AN EMPIRE THAT STANDS THE TEST OF TIME
Lead your empire through distinct Ages of human history. Each Age is its own rich, nuanced journey, with unique playable civilizations, available resources, explorable land, and even entire gameplay systems, creating a deep, historically immersive strategy experience. Strive to accomplish significant scientific, cultural, militaristic, and economic milestones within each Age to unlock impactful advantages in the next!
EVOLVE YOUR EMPIRE AS EACH NEW AGE DAWNS
To build a legacy that truly stands the test of time, you must adapt. Forge your own path through history as you reshape your empire at the start of each Age, selecting from a pool of new Age-relevant civilization options determined by your prior gameplay accomplishments. Evolving your empire unlocks fresh gameplay bonuses and unique units, so your current civilization is always at the height of its power.
PLAY AS VISIONARY LEADERS OF PROGRESS
Embody an illustrious leader with one of Civilization's most diverse rosters yet, from traditional heads of state known for their militaristic might or political prowess, to visionary leaders who made everlasting impacts in philosophy, science, human rights, and more! Each leader possesses a unique ability and can further be improved with customizable attributes earned through gameplay, empowering you to reinforce or pivot your strategy from one Age into the next. For the first time in franchise history, you can choose your leader separately from your civilization, giving you the freedom to create all-new strategies by mixing and matching gameplay bonuses.
EXPLORE A WORLD BROUGHT TO LIFE LIKE NEVER BEFORE
Make your mark on a gorgeously detailed world! Your empire comes to life with a vast, diverse range of cultural styles, represented across building architecture and unit design. Face-to-face interactions with other historic leaders immerse you in every act of diplomacy and declaration of war. As your territory expands and your cities continue to develop, lavishly rendered vistas of your empire seamlessly connect to create a vibrant metropolis.
