    Leader choices for "playing the map"

    All capital(like) mindset, Vanilla and Warlords

    Im probably one of the few that tend to settle cities that are close to "capital-ish" These are cities with rivers, 3-4 resources, no mountain-peaks, no deserts, tundras or any unbuildable tile If I don't find a place anywhere near me, I would just shift to a warmongering mindset, in order...

    Coastal City Commerce

    How many here favor building Coastal Cities? for me, I tend to build Coastal cities first, then once they are settled in, thats when I'll just build additional "inner" cities to capture the other resources I like them, as I can just build a Lighthouse(+1F) and the Colossus(+1C) building...

    capturing cities

    do you raze old cities? or do you occupy it? most of the time, when I capture, there are no buildings in it anymore would there be any benefits on placing a settler there yourself?(after razing) i think you just retain the population count
