you always spawn with 2 cloud hamlets a mountain spire and a cloud palace
If your playing in a game with Scourge lords you may want to pay close attention to them even though they generally spawn opposite of you on most occasions if they spread out far enough the desertification effects of the their faction can destroy non permanent cloud tiles making it difficult to use the sky for travel aside from floating creatures
Your early lords are very squishy and can easily lose fights in the sky and on the ground try to rush your summon lords asap, buy extra lords when possible at the start and don’t be too afraid to take your units out of your starting city independents don’t spawn nearly as much in the sky and stop spawning all-together on your cloud after taking all the hamlets, towns and etc on it
