Site b have abolutly no food as said. Cant realy see it be much good before biology. Settling it 2 E(B2) of spot B would give it food from farming grass. and could be run as a nice midgame production city with all those hills. Of course it would crash hard with the orange spot which would be a very nice comerce city(with cottages cause of riverside, though could also be done with farms). I like site Red A way more than blue though the capital doesnt realy need to work that much food all the time. whales arent avaliable before optics anyways. I am vondering where the bronze is. If you settle the blue spot it also wont crash with B2 though it leaves you with one less city(which might not actually be a too bad thing on this difficulty level, however working 2 gold resources will probably give you enough income to expand a bit further even before col(though if your doing the oracle for col you'll get there asap anyways). Alternativly you could just settle either A or B or both and then head straight to war with france(forgoing the oracle). hoepfully he'll build the stonhenge or pyradmids for you. If only it was him that started with the stone and you had marble . On another note i checked and you could have gotten budism too. There is nothing, at leas tnot that you can see of resources directly south right? Personaly i think it would be more flavourfull to just throw up some fast cities and then rush lous than fiddeling around with Oh shiny! Running a gold mine based economy mostly until col(you have 3! goldmines within short distance of you, now if only at least one of them were gems or silver...).
