i agree with you grimjack. if it is growing faster then it can produce worjers then there is no need at all. we should try to improve all land squares around washington and new york asap IMHO

I say stick with the spot recommended--moving to NE will get it off the river--not necessary for this city to be a worker/settler factory.

hmm, i never saw the river, so yah keep it on the river. what are your thoughts on New York's proposed granary?
It won't grow faster than it produces workers for long. As it grows it produces more shields/turn and workers will be built quicker. The granary is VERY important. We're wasting oodles and oodles of food without a granary. And it will be a huge waste to leave this city producing workers for infinity. You're better off making a far flung city into a worker factory than a core city. New York will work making workers for a short while, but once we've got our second ring around Washington it should switch to settlers. And then when we're done expanding the granary will help it recover from being a settler factory into a normal productive city.
Even if you did keep it a worker factory through the entire expansion phase a granary would still help immensely. The granary would allow the city to remain pop 5-6 instead of the current 2-4. Workers would be getting produced every 2-3 turns instead of every 7-10 turns due to the increased production and faster growth.
Moving the FP city one tile NE doesn't take it off the river...all it does is move it 1 tile farther from Washington, bring the wheat within workable range, and remove the desert tiles from the city radius.

i thought you meant e, not ne so yah ne would be fine. i still dont think a granry will be necessary until we need settlers due to washington building infrastructure. whoever is up next can decide though. whoever says "got it" first besides shillen and i can play next.

Oops..looks like BoG and I had the same "directionally-challanged" view. 
If LM has to skip, I GOT it. I should be able to play tonite and post either tonight or tomorrow morning.
@Shillen--agree on value of graneries.

Here is a screenshot with my recommended city locations.
Recommend settling blue then yellow, green and orange. We also should put a city where all the white dots show we are wasting tiles.

@ BoG No prob. Since we are not religious, and have no particular culture pressure--the mp's keep the cities happy immediately. Also thought that about DC--we sure do have some great land--just have to snatch it up and get a galley out exploring asap (I suggest a prebuild or a whip).

do we have contact with korea? if we do, then they should have contact with someone else since this is contonent.

No contact--just know that the blue is for Korea (saw the capital in the "Top 5 cities" listing. We will need to get MM to get contact, unless we see a wandering galley.
