with this ?
The Egyptian woman is to the north.
No resources to my north (am sending scout to the north west).
Desert on the peninsula to the east.
Looks like a pain of a start.
Blue and Green are cities i'd like to make later on, but I want to expand towards Hatty first to claim land but how to do it. She is just off the top centre by one or two squares so what is shown is what I have to work with.
I have copper so can make spears to counter the war chariots.
But where do I put my cities with the lack of resources and all that desert?
Playing vanilla civ4 as Bismark on a continents map, small size, low sea level on Prince.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
EDIT: I don't have AH yet or IW so they might appear in the empty spaces (hopefully), would you say train them next and put a city where existing resources are or put one in the empty space and hope they appear? ARGHHH so many options I dunno what to do......
