Revised City-Planner Recommendations

[SCG]

ah, i never remember to check that
hmm, based on that Cartenna is 14.5 spaces away from that destroyer, and that Girba is the current capitol of the Carts, I'm guessing its NW of Gades, as its only 10 spaces to that coast... wonder what it demands tradewise?

Speaking only as a Citizen, I'm thinking it might be on one of those islands, and very subject to attack.

Coordinates 26, 48 would be a likely spot for an AI to pick ( 2 Whales)... Or maybe 14,46 (1 Whale)...

It would make a good city for us to incorporate in to our Democracy, or a good city to trade with if we found it.

hehe, maybe we should ask pres how close he gets to those islands during the transport runs. I pretty sure its not on the 2nd island north, as my transport rendesvous should have taken place on that coast to pass the gold north and the salt and cloth south (at least I recommended the space adjacent to the whale and the black space is gone from the sea that the transport would have passed through SW of kerman)

anyway, have there been any studies of when AI moves its capitol? I would guess that it would be moved closer to the center of its civ after a certain threshhold is reached in corruption?

LOL! I didn't even think to check at first, but "Girba" is the Carth Capitol! Now wouldn't *that* be a nice well-stocked city to find and take for our own? And it is a great mid travel place for our northern-bound transpiorts to find safety in.

just in case anyone else wants to jump in

and just in case anyone is wondering about the map we are debating

here it is The destroyer circled is the one in question, and. Cavebear is suggesting we check out the black squares on the north and east islands to see if Girba is there. Certainly would be handy to have cities there as layover stops

upon further review, the transport is from amazon island and is closer to Cartenna, so Girba can't be on the north island. distance wise, the 2-whale spot on the east island is viable, as is over by Gades somewhere.

That's an interesting thought. Once you get Girba pinned down I'll have to make a taskforce.
