New City Proposal

Proposal for a new, strategic city

There is a tile of land right in the middle of the large bay between Ameri and China that I would like to place a city on, for strategic purposes. It would give us almost complete control of access to the coastal areas around it, especially once we built a coastal fortress and put some artillery into it. It would also be an excellent staging ground for bombing runs into China should we end up at war.

We are already well over the optimum number of cities, so I do not believe this new city would affect our corruption levels.

I propose that the settler be built in one of the less productive (because of waste) cities in Ameri, and that the city become part of Ameri.

I like it. Once you're at 2x max cities there is no further corruption penalty for more cities. In fact, I'd propose starting some fill-in cities when our max corrupt cities get finished with their cultural buildings.

The President's office endorses this plan and points out that Philadelphia already has a settler queued up per Governor Plexus's old build queue. Philly's cathedral will be done in two turns and the settler is next. It will be ready in three more turns. It will take another 12 or 13 turns to reach the proposed spot (unless rails are in place beforehand).
