I would definitely settle for copper+pigs as #3 or #4. It would juggle between pigs and deer for food, depending on which is free (will share deer with some river city). While marginal later it would have good early productivity and can help work cottages for capital. You're going to have to farm a lot of that area later anyway. I also wouldn't feel comfortable hooking up metal so late.
So to use your dotmap, I'd have YC, XA, city 2 and 1SE of copper for the NW quadrant.
