Hey guys, I'm a fairly experienced player who's coming back to civ after almost two years. I still remember most of the stuff and I'd say I sit somewhere between Emperor and Immortal level, but if there's one thing I never dominated is settling.
For example, I just started this game as Arabia and I don't know how to proceed in my very first turn. This start looks very promising with three wheats next to rivers and a fair amount of hills. The problem is my starting point is not on a river. I'm not sure if this matter THAT much, but I felt very inclined to moving to the spot where my warrior is so I could settle next to a river while also grabbing that salt. However, that would mean giving up the furs and one of the wheats.
Can you guys give me some guidelines and/or rule of thumbs on how to evaluate situations like this one?
