I much like the GP factory on the end of the forest. It's not a high risk move, unlike Red, but also the gains are quite useful. Also, we havent uncovered all of our close land yet, so there is a decent chance of iron being just around the corner. To be honest, I'd much rather a city on the jungle NE of the capital than Red, simply because Red is too vulnerable, too provocative and too risky for a game where we only need to be top 3.
