As most of us I've been quite happy about the viability of tradition in G&K and I've used it far more often than liberty. Lately, though, I've been wondering if there's any logic behind the decision of chosing between those or do I just follow a plan laid out before rolling a map.
The only factor I've noticed I've used as a basis of decision making is the proximity of neighbours. The more space I have more likely I'll start with liberty but tradition seems to be the standard opening regardless of VC. Unless there's a reasonable space for 5+ cities I'll tend to start with tradition.
So how is it with others ? Tradition over liberty or vice versa but more interestingly why ? Just a gut feeling or some logic behind it ? Honor doesn't seem appropriate for anything but a very specific start.
