Making of Civ 5 video up with animations at gamespot

Ok. I see there are several more discussion threads since those posts.

If the logical deduction you're making here is that the city starts off at size 1 working only the city tile, that strikes me as a bit odd. It's removing that first decision you have to make with each new city of what tile to work. I'm keeping an open mind at this point about the implications of the screenshot we're examining.

Okay I goofed on the population being 11 with 10 citizens rather than 12 with 11 citizens. This means there would still be +2 food unaccounted for from tiles alone - it might be a city improvement bonus or something.

Fact is we can't tell exactly for sure without seeing more of the information than is presented - for instance expanding that "citizen allocation focus" and/or hovering the mouse over the food segment to get a breakdown of the food calculations.
