Waiiiiiit a minute here... how come I get an Unhappy person and you don't at Size 4?Yes. While you can work the clam at size 3, you have to grow through size 4 with 1 . If you cycle 4-2, you will never have a in gold.
Oh, are you saying that you'd whip immediately upon growing to Size 4? If so, then you aren't using 3 Seafood Resources to grow while at Size 4, which is a "no no."
As I said, at Size 4, the Clam would equal a Grassland Farm (that gets 2 free Commerce, but let's ignore the Commerce), which is still better than not being able to work such a square.
Well, something being "more difficult" is not the same as saying "not possible," it just may be more work for the Active Player (time to be glad that it's not you right now! ).Given the amount of overflow hammers currently in gold, working the gold actually makes 2 pop whipping MORE difficult. If we work the gold, I'm the galleon will become a 1 pop whip before we hit size 5.
Besides, there are a lot of options:
1. Pick different unit types to whip with different Hammer costs
2. Overflow your Hammers into a different unit and create it using mostly overflow Hammers (it could even be an Archer for a future Military Police unit)
3. For a single turn, work a Coast instead of the Gold square, if doing so helps out with keeping a build item as a 2-pop-whip instead of a 1-pop-whip
