    Bad City location settled by AI.

    I reckon Gandhi should have settled 1 Tile NW of his current location to build up the Fish and Gems in his 2nd ring... Looks like I'll have to raze it lol. Blake may like to have a look at this strange behaviour The save is 1 turn before he settles in that bad location
