AU102: All we're sayin' is give peace a chance
You are Hippie Sam of the Americans, and you love peace... Well maybe you don't, but you have no choice because you can't build any military units.  You must win the game using nothing but flower power. 
The settings:
Emperor
Standard
Continents
60% water
Wet
Cold
3 billion
Sedimentary [Edit: ]
The neighbors: (with new AI build priorities)
India (Production, Happiness, Wealth, Trade)
France (Production, Happiness, Trade, Culture)
Egypt (Growth, Production, Happiness, Wealth)
Iroquois (Growth, Production, Happiness, Exploration)
China (Defense, Production, Trade, Culture)
Germany (Offense, Production, Science, Trade)
Good luck! 
PS. Don't forget to set your initial city build, otherwise you will not be building anything, since warriors are not allowed.

Why does the attachment get lost whenever you preview your post?

Here is exactly the same game, but with standard AI build priorities.

Where did the discussion on map come out? Archipelago, continents or pangea?

That's what happens sometimes when English is not your first language. Sorry! 
Since I know the map anyway, I'll play the least popular option, which will likely be standard.
Catt: It's continents.

/me envisions a defense of workers, throwing themselves in front of (or to the side/behind of) oncoming hordes, hoping to slow them down or misdirect them until diplomacy can be re-established.

So are there Barbs or not? And are Scouts allowed to be built (or do we just disband our first Scout?)

Yes, there are: SEDENTARY.
(you can stop laughing now)
And, yes, you can build scouts. You can build transport ships too. Basically whatever appears in the build queue, you're allowed to build.

It was actually a pun of Arrian's.
Are there hordes on this setting?

I don't know how's yours, but my game crashes after 3800BC. I reloaded the autosave, and it crashes again. I replayed from the start, doing the same move, and it crashes  .
I'm playing the version with the improved AI.
Now trying the other one.

It crashes whenever you are about to complete your first build. Is that what everyone is seeing?
I think the game can't handle it when there is no basic defensive unit.

Yea, put a warrior in. But it's a pesky bug anyway. Soren, Mike, anyone?

That was indeed the problem.
OK, now that some of you know part of the map, would you like me to create a new one, or shall I just fix this one?

It's pesky certainly, but I doubt they thought anyone would be stupid enough to try this.

The killer crashed for me at 2900BC, after 3 scouts and a Temple for me.... I then went out for a bit.
Do a new map, but: DAMN!!! Got a Settler from the second goody hut!

While you're at it, there was something on the build menu that didn't make any sense... Barracks?

That's about the same as I intended to build, but mine crashed already in 3800BC. So it was not crashing when the first build was complete.
