I've just spotted that there are two volcanoes. One is clearly visible. The other is SE of the spot that we talked about, where the river springs. Not sure if we really want a city there. I'm inclined to agree about spot C in Brasilbear's dotmap.
I am kinda split about that coastal spot. If we place it on the grassland, we can work the hill -- that's true. But that will eventually just make 1 shield difference (a CC on grass will get 1 shield, CC on a hill will get 2 when the town becomes a city). Also, the whole city radius will move north too and so trade a plains tile for a bunch of tundras.
I am tending to something like this for city placement:
It is a little larger because I stitched several screenshots together. But it does show the coverage of the tiles.
