It's often a good idea to have a look at the civilopedia before you search the boards.
Odd choice to post this question in here, anyway... but nevermind, welcome to the forum.

Reasons to leave the forest
- Forts count as cities, so swordmen, trebuchets and all units with city raider promotions receive a bonus for attacking you there.
- As Stuporstar pointed out, 75% defense on forested hills > 50% in hill forts. (Promotions aside: the only time hill/fort is better than hill/forest would be if you defend with Archers.)
Reasons to build a fort
- Units stationed inside a fort heal like they do in a friendly city.
- Aircrafts, missiles and paratroopers can be based there.
Not quite right. What happens is if you settle a city on a 3
tile, your city gets 3. If you settle on a 0, 1, or 2 tile, your city gets 2.So if you settle on a grass-deer (worth 3
unimproved) your city will get 3. But if you settle on a tundra-deer (worth 2 unimproved), your city gets just 2. The same is true for hammers (settling on a 2
tile gets you 2) and commerce, although it doesn't count the effect of tile improvements (like farms), forests, jungles, or floodplains.Kewko

I found this guide very useful and keep finding myself referring to it a lot. Good job!
One small thing tho, I didn't see any part about the Moai Statues. This can be vital in coastal cities for the production boost to sea and coastal tiles.

Just thought I'd mention this for you
