I think it makes more sense to check the forest 2SE and grassland 2SW to see if they are freshwater or not, as they look to be adjacent to coast of some description, then settle, and then make the decision on scouting direction. I'm looking for maximum information on second and potential third city locations, to see if I want to throw out a quick third city. If that is coast to the south, then I am going to get a solid view once borders expand eot4 and should probably send the scout in another direction. I'm going to have limited views east or west due to flatland and forests, so probably better to pick on of those and then cycle north. I think east might be better (via E-SE), because if I'm going to whip the second worker, I'll have a fair bit of time to scout with the first warrior and the second warrior can cover the settler. This way the warrior will be able to cover the east if the scout can't, there is redundancy if the scout gets eaten by a bear and dependent on the terrain shown on T0 we can review the likelihood of culture getting us enough information or not.
I would go E-NE and to see if worth moving a turn.
