MrCynical said:Yes, but you'd get a hammer on the city tile no matter what you found it on, so you are only getting +1 hammer from the iron, not +2.
The plains/hill/iron city generates 3 hammers/turn, which is +2 compared to a "normal" city.
Anyway, my main point is that comparing the +1 or +2 hammers that you get from building on the resource, to +5 or +6 that you get from mining the resource, is misleading, because the former is the relative difference and the latter is the absolute number from which you should subtract the +3 or +4 for a standard hill.
