Plains-Cow
Best Resource; Always Wins
There are generally two different scenarios: plains-heavy cities, and plains-light cities. Typically I'll use farms in both situations and irrigate them, especially if it's a production city. However, if I'm committed to a financial playthrough, then I'll cottage if there's enough food (floodplains in city ring or food resource in city ring that offsets the lower food from plains).
