normally i would never consider moving my settler in a hof game ...

but i changed my mind when my worker beheld the land of hamburger.

Actually, the move was a bit counter-productive. In the very early stages I would think it makes more sense to split the cows up between two or three cities so they can pump out settlers faster. Now you have one city taking up all of the cows which is fairly wasteful.

There's information regarding that in the FAQ (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?postid=957097#post957097).

JazzToucan's got a great point. If I saw a distribution like that I'd go for 2 settler factories and 1 worker factory.

yeah but if you did that, you couldn't say you had a 5-cow town.

hey turkish guy, putting pictures in is pretty easy. the way i do it is to just call the pictures from my web site. like lets say you had a picture on cnn's web site that was at http://cnn.com/picture.jpg, you would put that in by putting and then the http://cnn.com/picture.jpg and then a and it would show the picture. you can also attach pictures with the thing that says "attach file" below ... i have never used that before. try it out and see what happens!

1 turn Worker factory if you want to set it up! Even a 3 turn Settler factory.

Size 6, +10 food, +8 shields, growth +2 shields from the forest.

That would be your Worker. Otherwise the next two turns are:

Size 7, +10 food, +10 shields
Size 7, +10 food, +10 shields, growth + 2 shields

---------------

Setting either up is a inefficient (but a rarity for despotism, and exciting). Should be able to get 3 cities using those cows instead to better effect.
