Corn spotted !




I'll whip the worker in 3t. And speaking of happy cap, the fur being on a mountain we'll be getting only whale for happiness until we get the mids.

Classic French cuisine could work, but the character limit is going to be annoying. Boeuf Bourgignon is 16 characters long for example.

What was your reasoning for not wanting to settle on the copper? Didn't want it hooked too early? Or not wanting to 'waste' it? Or fear of missing seafood?

It's potentially a 0/6/1 tile. That's pretty good !

True, but unless you have food to feed it not hugely useful! Without seafood the only food for that spot is dry rice. Settling it nets you 2 hammers on the base tile always and would have given you an auto route with the capital.

However loss of cheap MP ability straight away would be annoying...

That's why I prefer site b (see post 119), it has a grassland cow for food.

The pig is pastured so the cap gets the sheep back, for exactly the amount of foodhammers we need. Worker will be whipped next turn !

Would have been three hammers on city tile, actually. On the other hand...imperialistic, lowish difficulty, not much happy being found, those argue for lots of small cities anyway.

Loss of cheap MP is another way to phrase 'not farmers gambit'. Maybe that's paranoia, but it really stung us in our last game.

Looking at the new scouting, it seems to me after copper we will want to push East first. More land than I had been expecting.

And...the longer we go without finding more happy, the more I like the mids idea.
