The second city

I'd like to see us settle the site labelled City3 first. The commerce advantage of two mined gold is just too good to pass up, plus it will have good production too.

Plus our people will be happy, all the gold and silver!
 
The city 2 in the screenshot grabs cows, rice and gold, the city 3 in the screenshot grabs two gold and cows. City 3 first is better as it doesn't need a borderpop to work good tiles. And we might not have mysticism for some turns.
 
The advantage of two gold mines, gives you such a huge boost in the early game, it's ridiculous to want to grab anything else first. I have to check the save in a minute, and I'll give a visual of where I'd like to see us settle.
 
Actually I'll send the scout a bit east for a turn, to uncover if it's just desert or not, then I'll post a visual.

Edit: that will most likely be done by the second scout, if it is built.
 
We really need to discover BW and AH to reveal copper and horses before we can decide where our next city should go. With that being said, I have a slight preference for site #3; but I strongly suspect that will change after the scout pushes back more fog in the next turnchat!

Of course, we would make a decision after more fog has been revealed. However, there is no harm in planning ahead of time. We could always change our dotmap.
