Best Sci-Fi is Red Dwarf

Only if seasons 7+ never happened.

In the absence of a two-food-first-ring site, wouldn't it be best to beeline for the pigs, as the highest-food-yield tile available? 1N or 1NW thereof?

Possibly, but it makes the rest of the dotmap more tricky and it's a slow starter. I'll try it out to see how it feels, but I'm wondering about settling the coastal city, working the sheep, chopping an obelisk to pop borders for wheat and fish, then get a city on the stone and another south of the pig somewhere.

Question is do I want that tight a dotmap? Assuming low happy cap and with PHI pushing toward specialists think I do. And could the pig city use stone and maths to chop the mids? I'm not normally wonder-inclined but rep would be great for happy cap and specialists.

Edit: but of course tech costs trip me up, I won't have fishing or mysticism when setting city 2.
