:point_down: DESCRIBE THE ISSUE IN DETAIL (below). LIMIT TO ONE BUG PER THREAD.

I did a skirmish with a 2v2v2 type setup and had the map settings set to All Maps. I also had the civs set to all random, including mine. I spawned in as the Incas next to a trading post, and the only thing that was given to me was my explorer. I had no Town Center and no villagers at all, with no way of building one or otherwise getting one. I don’t remember which map it was as I wasn’t paying close attention at the time.
EDIT: It was Painted Desert as Eagle said in a comment

I should’ve been able to spawn in and have a town center and villagers to actually play the game
