Turn 0
It was the year 4000 BC (although we didn't know it at the time) and blah blah blah... Oh look! Azza didn't settle on his turn - I wonder where he went?
I'm happy that my plans for settling in place are good so rather than scout around first I thought I'd settle and then decide which way to investigate. So welcome to the beautiful market town of Altrincham. Don't the dyes and floodplains at the other end of the lake look enticing:
It's coastline to the north of the wheat (sorry forgot to turn the resource bubbles on) so my guess is that Azza moved 2N to settle. I might have a look.
Bannanas and seafood? Looks like the plains jungle tile might be a good city... Also it looks like my sandbox is slightly off - I had Hunting down as a 32 beaker tech, not 34 - so I'm going to need to check how that affects the micro plan. At the moment I'm going Hunting - Agri - BW - AH - Wheel - Pottery, to get the first settler out t24. I've left the research unselected for this turn whilst I see how this changes things.
It looks like there is a lot of water on this map - I think the whole world is supposed to be 32*40 = 1280 tiles so about 50% land?
