Process

City site selection

You might say: where to settle, city placement

Choosing where to found a city: the tiles it will work, fresh water, coast, resources and the distance to other cities.

What it does
Fixes what a city can ever produce, since a city cannot move.
Ask
What will this city's tiles make over the game, and how much does it overlap its neighbours?

What to look for

  1. Suggested-site markers on the map
  2. The work radius shown before founding
