We currently have a settler being constructed in the town of Valhalla which will be ready to depart in 4 turns. To assist the Domestic Department in the founding of this soon-to-be city, I am creating this thread for discussion, proposals, debate, etc..

It is likely that we will have to post a quick poll on this matter in order to have the results in time for the next t/c.

All citizens are encouraged to participate in this discussion and related poll.
The poll is open! Cast your vote now!
 
In light of the change in city locations for most recently founded city, Kuhkaff, I think we should seriously reconsider our proposed location for next city (previously referred to as site B).

In its original location, it will be automatically connected to our road network, but it fails to employ use of the game tiles in the forest SW of Bavaria. We should consider moving the city to site B'.
 
Well, here's my proposal for the next 3 cities:

*A's Location uses both the game and the cattle, when it expands culturally, it will include the other game.

*B's location is more of a filler than anything but it should have decent production and food

*C is merely to get the Furs resource, it has a cow within it's boarders (after expansion, it will have the other furs to the north.

Thanks for contributing (and nice map :))... I assume that A would be for the first city, B for the second, and so on...?
 
I would agree on building the City on B'. The reason are, One We have acsess to a bonus tile in witch it provides extra food, and second It is close to the safety of our borders. I beleve that we should take the advantages of the bonus food tiles
 
I would take a site 2 tiles NW of site B'.
The next would i set 1 tile SE of site B'.

Here it is graphically:

A=KuhKaff (already built. too lazy for new map)
B=next
C=thereafter
D=after C

Benefit would be a max of cities in low corruption which would all be able to optimally grow to 12 pop. This should be enough for along time.
Also i was using the proposed order to prevent the danger of an aztec attack on a close city for as long as possible.
 
(On Disorganiser's Proposed map)
Sight A is were the current city has been built :).
Sight B looks good since there are two game resources there and can take the advantage of the forest, Both defensively and production wise :).
Sight C is also good since there is a Cattle resource there.
Sight D looks safe enough to build since it would not interfrear with Morgana's 3*3 tile radius, On the plus side, we can defend the Spices more easyely. :).
 
I do believe this is the first time I've seen this discussion. Anyway, I think we should use the city placement that I proposed on the map I submitted last month.
 
I agree with what plex and dis have to say about cities after site B. (A on Plex map) I like site B on Plex and D on Dis map. C on Plex Map is for after we are done with Monty. It would be in a low producing area, used mainly for its iron and fur (same thing aplies with the gems near the Japanese). I like them. Forty- Can you whip up a map post TC with Spot B Plex and C Dis?
Thanks
 
Site B on the map Plexus attached looks best to me...
