Enough said. Let the debate begin. Will someone please take charge of posting screenshots after every turn?
However, keep in mind that this is a manually-made map. Sullla could technically put any resources anywhere he wants.One thing I feel like pointing out is horses. Our UU is pretty superb, if nothing else than for strong early defense against barbs (which can keep up with settlers) so getting them would be great. As far as I'm aware, they can't appear on hills, forests, or deserts. If that's right, we have a grand total of 0 possible visible spaces for horses so far.
What I'm saying is that if we see some open plains nearby to the east we might want to do a little extra exploration there to increase the chances of us finding them asap.

That'd certainly be interesting. How would we go about hooking those up though?...now I'm going to be disappointed if we get anything less than coastal sea horses.
I agree with scout move, south east.
You could ask him. I suspect he wouldn't say anything though.hmm .. do we have any information from the mapmaker if he put resources in "unofficial" tiles? i certaintly wouldnt like that

We're up. Where is Lord Parkin?
What wonders await beyond the fog?!
Spoiler :Got tired of waiting and made the move, here's what we see:
Hmm, alright, how do we plan on using these to our advantage?
(Disclaimer: No I didn't really make the move and the image is a terrible, terrible fake. Don't be so gullible, gold doesn't appear on grasslands!)
Ooh, I'm taking that as a secret nod and wink.Maybe in the next Demogame!
As you suspected, no word one way or the other on resources appearing in unusual tiles. Explore the map and discover for yourselves.
Actually I was at work, for the first time in several weeks.We're up. Where is Lord Parkin?
Ooh, I want us to be in that game!!!What wonders await beyond the fog?!

Actually the capital border pop will not reveal any new land to the east, because the forest tiles restrict vision. We'll reveal in the north, south and west directions though.I don't think there is a need to go NE because the capital borders should pop soon (3 turns) and reveal the next row of tiles to the right of the capital.
Indeed. Looks like we'll be rich, rich, rich!And, wow! That is a lot of floodplains!
That's the time that Team SANCTA had to end their turn at the moment I took the screenshot. (I had ended our turn 6 seconds earlier, apparently. ) The timer appears in all Pitboss games, as well as some other online games.PS: What does that 23:59:54 in the top right corner of that screenshot mean?
