Plains wines river farm is a 2/1/3 tile for Financial, or essentially a river grassland cottage with 1 hammer of upside. I'm totally happy to work that until I have enough real cottages that I want to grow those - credit to Ceil for the idea! My tentative tech path is Wheel-Pottery-Mysticism-Polytheism-Priesthood (1turn Oracle, sling MC)-Masonry-Monotheism (found Judaism)-Monarchy, double revolt to OR and HR, probably with Fishing in there somewhere, but that's obviously roughly infinity turns of research, anything can change, and if the wines can be a productive commerce tile before then, why not? The farm is only 2c behind what a winery will be.
I haven't sat down and mathed out exactly what tiles I want my capital to max out at - it also depends on what my final dotmap turns out to be - but I know my BFC will require at least one plains farm to chain irrigation to my corn post CS. So I suppose that's a use
