	Unofficial: Our second base location Support Apolyton, buy Civilization III: Complete

As I don't want to yell at Pandemoniak again, I have decided to organize a citizen poll about the second base location myself. Please pick one of the three choices. Arguments provided for these two location I found in this thread. The reasons are:

For option 1:

quote: We build the base one tile northwest of that nutrient tile as you suggest. On the river mouth thus. As a consequence of that river the base tile produces 2-1-2. You say you want to take advantage of that nutrient resource, so I suppose you want to put our first worker there. This results in a production of 5 food, 1 mineral and 2 energy. Now consider placing the base on the nutrient bonus. As a consequence the base tile produces 4-1-1. I suggest we put our first worker on the tile west of our base site. This would result in a production of 5 food, 2 minerals and 2 energy. In other words, a doubling of our industrial capacity! An added advantage is our bases are placed a bit closer together. This way we don't loose the production of the valuable terrain in between and communications and transportation between our two bases will go faster.

For option 2:

quote: i'd rather not put the base on the nut tile, so later we can condense/farm/crawl it, producing more nuts...

This poll will last five days, or until the next turnplay session.

One tile SW of the nutrient tile. Not much in the way of base radius overlap (only 1 tile of overlap); has access to both the river and the nutrients; and it's coastal. And we can get to it quicker than either location, saving us some production time.

If not there, then NW of the nutrients (or N of this tile).
