. There is also a suspicious tile east of Beijing, indicting that there's land there. I'm again seeing patterns and suspect that Qin is coastal connected to the continent, but we need a culture bridge to reach anybody but Sal.
, W, NE and SSE with culture. I don't believe that it's such easy that we just can go SE and everything is connected. But even if this is so, the culture bridges will pay off for easier transport.Excellent rationale, Erkon. Wrong, but excellent.
. With our granary, when we poprush down to pop3, the granary will keep half of 36 = 18 plus anything we have in excess of 18 up to 36. So, to make the pop fall from almost pop4 (36/39) down to pop3(36/36) [ha ha], we need only 36, not 39 (= pop4). Presto. to bring our pop from pop2>pop4 and 41 for pop3>almost pop5 for poprushing purposes. . surplus * 15 turns = 60 surplus * 15 turns = 75 surplus * 15 turns = 90 Bingo! surplus, minimum. So with the banana farm and 2 in each city, technically we don't need a farm if we're poprushing units. The problem comes in when we need to grow the pop back up AND build a settler up to 61+ hammers for the poprush. For this, even with two farms and 1 unchpped forest still available, we can't poprush sooner than every 17 turns. Luckily , we only have a couple more urgent settlers to make.
10 turns faster. 30/3
As long as we have workers/settlers in the mix we like to have more food. For the stable pop-rushing while growing, you're right. But also it's nice to have some food tiles in reserve, if happiness increases and one wants to grow fast.
KK is out IMO. That doesn't pay off enough, with all the other cities we're planning. I'm still undecided about gold. As we really need a lux urgently, I'm currently favoring Drojf.
No the stone is already hooked up. You don't need masonry for that.

Ok, there are already a bunch more posts, rather send this before it gets too old
at size three, and if we pop rush from 4 to 2, the average income will be 5? (undoubtedly, that will change once we have to let Erkon play).
Well, we don't end up with 4 cities, I presume.KK will bring in 6
Assume we end up with four cities (MW, EK, Drojf and QG). What will the difference in maintenance be for KK? More than 5

I considered this a long time ago (w/o telling anybody), but 3 hammers max (30 turns for Stonehenge), with the possibility that one just loses the race, and ends up with a much suboptimal city put me off.
Edit:
Sure Erkon, one still needs masonry in this case. But that's no problem to get this.
It's just that the city can use it right away (instead taking forever to build a quarry) and has 2 hammers in the city center.
Well, we don't end up with 4 cities, I presume.
Every city increases the number of cities maintenance in every other city by 0.25+a little bit for population in the other city (little bit no problem for the sizes we have).
It will itself have a distance maintenance of 1-2.
At 4 cities KK is a clear winner. But longterm it might be a drag.
+ 4*little bit + ~2 distance maint. The net will be ~2 which is not much.
+ 4 with quarry, so the net difference (for working coast with lighthouse) is +1 +2 -3
