We have room for 2 productive ancient cities.

1 on site 4, and another 3 tiles straight NE. Each city would have 2 tiles of the Apolyton plains that could be mined. 1 or both should be used if we opt for the early war strat.

BTW. As a matter of principle, it is best to have the discussion thread prior to the poll. It's kind of hard to go back and change the poll if better ideas come up in the course of discussion.

correct me if im wrong, but this is what i'm picturing.

and it looks good to me.

the way i see it, after the french war, the cities could be used as "worker farms", using one grassland or so to pump out a worker every so often.

and in the long run, we could even disband them and add them to thebes to make up for lost time.

UberKrux is correct. Each city gets 2 mined grassland tiles. That's good for 3-4 shields per turn, without corruption. But the workers will have to stop to improve Thebes as soon as the first settler is built. By this time, they can be ready with jungle clearing. then Thebes can build a worker itself for further improvement.

EDIT: The right of these cities could even been built 1 tile more SE. It would even have access to 3 productive tiles then.

i dont know why i'm so vocal in the IE post, but things seem to be getting done and i dont mind helping a bit.

this is sir ralph's current plan and overlays of tiles for immediate benefit for the two.

i think its the best so far.

since apolyton has it's fish and whale, it wont need all those grasslands for a while.

we'll use the river soon enough, dont worry friend.

the problem right now is that we need cities to produce war units NOW, not in 50 turns.

after we secure our empire, we may even disband cities. we'll see.

I agree with Sir Ralph's variant of what I proposed. Uber's pic with the white dots has it right.

City Blue is good filler between Red and Thebes.

A future city could be placed 3 straight NW of Blue, to get the benefit of the far side of the river, depending on other undiscovered terrain, of course. Blue could stick around indefinitely as a smaller burb. Or not, doesn't matter at the moment.

Uber. The reason why I'm glad you are paying attention here is that every move we make and every other thing we do must contribute to the war effort. We have no room for wasted effort.

After consideration, Sir Ralph's plan seems like a very good idea to me. People have made good arguments supporting it and it seems like many people like it. It seems better than my ideas, I just didn't consider those spots because I usually don't build cities so close together. This plan allows us to maximize our usage of our grasslands and reduce corruption because they are so close to the capital.

I will most likely build cities in those spots, if elected IE minister, that is.

As there is probably a lot of time befor the next city, and I am guessing that it is more likely to come from a goodie hut than anything else, I say build out as far away as possible to help expand our borders beyond the jungle.

I agree with site #6 for the reasons Timeline mentions.
We also need to explore site #3. It's probably just jungle, but you never know. It could be jungle with resources, which would complete change our location decision.

Explore. Explore much more before a decision can be made. Not enough information at present. We are lucky in that we do still have some time.

That is one thing I do when I play, I explore, top priority of any excess military, and one of the main reasons I build extra military early. I send them on exploring missions; and I later I use them to garrison my cities and for other purposes.
