Imagine this. The game starts, the Spanish clubman and settler are right next to you. I found my city so they are stuck. I declare war, send my single club wielding soldiers to them. And bam, the fall of the Spanish within half a minute.

LOL

My scout was stuck today too, I had open borders with USA, but then he closed his borders, and so my Scout was on the other side of the map, so he got stucked in one Tile.

Sounds like a bug to me.

Trying setting your ATI card's 'Iberian Impotence' level to zero and re-install your drivers.

Did you do Tiny, 18 civs or something? Strange that she started right next to you.

Terra, Huge, Tropical

That is the odd part.

I thought they were supposed to be bumped to the closest neutral tile if culture expands over them?

I would suggest this be posted as a bug in the bug forums, since that's what it seems like it is.

The one tile that was not cultured was the one where the Spanish were on. They were trapped.

It would change from "Killed the Spanish in 5 turns" to "Brutally killed unfairly in 5 turns, stupid Firaxis! I hate you!" :p

Still. I got a horrid start posistion.

Ok, ive seen some bad start positions, but that...thats just sad.

Maybe a minimum distance from other civ's when rolling start loc's? :)
