Crappy start... Tired of ads?

Ocean E. Jungle S. Desert and Hills N. Possibly more coast a bit to the west. It looks like we will have to be very careful about our city sites given the limited amout or decent land close to out capital (we still have to check due W though).

My current thoughts. If good land is due W go there first. If marginal, than go 4 SE on river/coast. It looks like we may have to use our jungle-hacking practices from the SPDG game.

Put an end to popups!

Taking refence to the latest Ministry of war pics ( i dont know how to put the picture here) the land up north may be better than we thought.

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

From my latest images, to the north we can only see hills and desert so far. Lots of new hill tiles, and 1 more desert tile were revealed this turn.

Suffering from ads?

We should try to settle on hilly area we find. It will give bonuses to defense. We can't avoid all desert either, but try to seize productional foodlands. Thus, we can't get all 'perfect cities' size 20+ here, so don't settle for that.

Hey! The captial, is it on a hill?

Ah, then this sure is a crappy start.
If we had founded it one tile north it would be on a hill with sea access. Or directly west, so we could have the forest+game later but no sea access. To bad. No patience.

Ok, cheer up folks.
We are gonna win!

Our start is not crappy, it's just not good. Just thought I would throw that out in the open (as Minister of the Interior, I have to keep myself motivated somehow!).

Well excuse me. I considered rivers with shielded cattle tiles with nearby gold-iron mountains good land.
