This just occured to me sitting here at work (wishing I was sitting home beating Isse into the ground).
How do you explore the map? Do you go around the coast and try to find the limits of the land mass? Or do you sweep out in a semi-circle trying to discover anything near you first to help with city placement? Or do you wander around in some other configuration I have not thought of yet?
What are the benefits of exploring the way you chose?
I personally explore the coast trying to find out where I am on the land mass. This helps me understand which direction to start plcing cities. Hopfully I'll find a chocke point before the AI, maybe even see far enough to discern other lands just out of reach.
