Hi,
As you can see from the image below I've identified the area where the game is suggesting I settle my city but I have a conundrum as there is iron and a unique luxury outside of the radius for the two spots (also a natural wonder Old Faithful too) and I'm unsure which I should prioritise?
Unfortunately I have no iron anywhere so that iron resource, which is 6 iron, is my only source of iron so I'm looking strongly at that but as you can see there is a marble resource to the west. You can't see it on this screen but directly west of Vienna (just where the AUI icons are) is a marble resource as well as furs but to settle a city there will be a lot of overlapping tiles with Vienna.
I was briefly considering settling on the middle suggestion so that I can grab marble, eventually get the iron but not work it and also get old faithful but I'm not sure if old faithful is that great? I haven't worked it for a long time and also I'm pretty sure I won't be able to connect this city to the rest of my civilisation without a coastal city?
What about settling two cities on that side of the mountains? One to grab an observatory, old faithful and marble and another to the East to grab the iron and gold and a coastal city?
