First 48 turns Kush Recorded Guide to help New players

[IceMatrix]

I lowered some difficulty settings while maintaining others from my usual and offered strategy guidance throughout.

Video Description: "This is a guide to the first 48 turns of a lower difficulty matchup using Kush. I try to explain exactly what your mindset should be as you approach these critical early turns and demonstrate the aggressiveness for expansion you need to play with and why(Hint: there are no tribes or barb camps left in the endgame. Someone will have them. Best be you). Culminating with a slick city steal on turn 48.
I tried to pick lower difficulty settings than I usually play at, but still kept some of them higher as explained below.
Settings: 1. Prosperity level is Thriving(3rd level) I still played with max AI aggression which is competitive and I explain why at the start. I think it will make you a better player to play on that setting even if you lose. I can lower this to a lower setting of audience request if you desire that.
2. I set AI Advantage to Small. Even though many newer players play with it as none, I just wanted a little more challenge.
3. I set AI Development to Established(3 cities and 3 technologies).
4. Ruthless AI is on. Realistic Mortality is on for reasons explained in the video. Turn scale year, event level maxed. Points and Ambition victories with Very High points turned on. Seaside. Double Fatigue. Huge map(7 players). Lock Save. No Undo. All DLC's

If you want me to continue this playthrough, I am happy to do so, just request it, otherwise I probably won't as the difficulty settings are not my typical settings, but the game was getting fun(it's always fun to be fair lol)and so if it's helpful to the viewers I will play another 40-50 turns or the whole game so you can see the other actions taken."

As I mentioned before, I want the channel to be community driven. I will essentially make a private tutor video where you can pick any leader any difficulty settings and number of turns you want me to play with it and will record it, offer all strategic analysis, and upload it. Just ask. You should also check out the devs livestreams on Twitch. They have their own setup and know far more than me about game mechanics.

Let me know any feedback( I had not yet implemented several very helpful commenters ideas, as this was recorded before their comments were)
