Assume hoover and factory no bonus or penalties but railroaded
Good places to build
a large grassland area
if completely mined it would have a minimum of 90 shields and max of 120 shields
13 hills and 7 irrigated grassland = 21 food 117 shields
4 flood plains and 16 mines = 144 shields 20 food
irrigation
20 grassland not irrigate city size of 20
all irrigated city size of 40
but little production
20 flood plain city size of 60 and 0 production
shielded grassland railroaded is 3 shields if mined 1 if irrigated or left alone
regular grass land 2 shields mined 0 if irrigated or left alone
you can also get decent sized cities in hills if they are on the coast
also have 4 tiles of space between each one so you build on the fifth tile. To maximize land. But if you get stuck on a friggin glacier build em all over the darn place. In this case you pack em in like sardines
