vmxa, btw, I have "vulture"'s compilation/article: "Growth and Expansion in Civilzation III". Page 12 (Fig. 1.2) shows the flattened diamond grid. I also took Fig. 3.1 (p.27) and expanded it to show distance rankings from the palace out to 20 (for help in locating a good FP site). I also experimented with Fig. 3.2 (p.27, OCP placement) and Fig. 3.3 (p.30 Rings of Ralph strategy) to come up with a hybrid that works for me.
