What to study
The pre-match setup screen in full: a slot roster on the left (open slots take human or A.I. players, closed slots are greyed out), a tabbed right pane for Overview, Game Setup and Map Setup, and every match variable exposed as a control — win conditions as checkboxes (Landmarks on, Sacred and Wonder off), tuning pack and cheats, starting resources, starting age and map state as dropdowns. The gold Start Game button sits beside Leave Game and Reset, so the whole match contract is visible before anyone commits. Frame at about 1:08 in the Season 3 - Launch Trailer (Steam).

Fetched 2026-11-04. verified 2026-11-04: scene-change candidate v3_0006.png at 68.2s in the Season 3 - Launch Trailer, inspected visually at full resolution; header, slots, tabs, checkboxes, dropdowns and footer buttons all settled and legible; a spot frame at 69s shows the same screen with a cheats tooltip open, so the 68.2s frame (no tooltip) is the keeper; no trailer caption in frame
