Idle workers Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations: Deluxe Edition

What do you usually do when you're done terraforming your continent, and your legion of 48 workers have nothing more to do, not even join cities because they're all full or can't grow anymore? I usually look for blind spots in my territory (spots not within a city radius and start planting forests. A relic from playing SMAC, I suppose.

I fortify some units in order to clean pollution swiftly and the other ones I sent to far away cities (which are newer and smaller and let them join the cities. I also usually send some with my invasion forces for support, i.e. fortresses, quickly connect a road.

I use them to plant forests, build road/railroad network. Depending on the situation, I may use them to connect another civ to my trade network so we can trade. Build fortresses at choke points or on resource squares.

Also, I usually chop down the jungle and replace it with forests. Usually by the time they are finished with the above things, if not before, the pollution is becoming an issue. I may also switch some current improvements between mines and irrigation, based on my needs at the time.
