So first of all, America gets 1/2 off of purchasing tiles...how does this mix with the Angkor Wat? Does it turn into a 75% discount? Or does the 25% discount from Angkor Wat compound with the 50% UA...making it a 62.5% discount overall?
Second, I have noticed that better tiles tend to cost less than crappier ones, even when they are the same distance from my borders. Why is this? Not that it bothers me necessarily. But is it because your city prioritizes the annexation of better tiles anyway, so it costs more to buy tiles that are farther out of the way of the natural annex order?
Third, has anyone had success moving their settler the first couple turns - near someone's capital) and purchasing that person/AI's luxury tiles? I thought that would be kind of funny.
And any general knowledge you have about how purchasing costs are calculated based on distance from borders, etc., is greatly welcome.
