Earliest KS I've ever seen is 1.1, but why would you want to use it anyway?
1.2 & 1.3 are a lot more useable. I've got original KS disks 1.1-1.3 if you'd like one. Otherwise, grabkick or some other KS utility found on Aminet could make an image of your older Kickstart out of an A2000 or A500 - to which end, you'd be able to simply copy over to a disk for the A1000.

There's also a utility to throw both Kickstart 3.1 and 1.3 on the same disk. Just do a search for A1000 and you'll see it....

Oh yeah, those early EA games were a pain. I remember now. They had similar issues with their software, even on the Sega Genesis and its revisions!

You need a KS 1.1 image before you can 'write out' a disk for it. I'm sure you can find it somewhere out there. People always say 'Google is your friend'. Bah... you can hardly find anything of relevance on the net searching Goggle anymore. Try a different search site.

Amiga Forever Plus Edition ($30) linky has it on their legal emulation scheme.

Now *that* was pretty nifty! Talk about power without the price  ;-)  

@ blakespot:

Please let us know if Seven Cities does not run under KS 1.1. I've never used 1.0 before. KS 1.1 has a date of '85 on it, so it must have replaced 1.0 fairly quickly after its release. In any event, be kinda cool to have WHDLoad version of that game to play on later model Miggy's.
