Losing one of your first few cities early in an MP game can be the kiss of death when you're playing with good opponents. Not always, but it can't help.

Esepcially if it's one that controls Gold. Also physically staking out the gold prevents opponents from parking a unit on top of it, thus making the city useless even if it were defendable.
If you want lots of Gold though set the land mass to super super huge, you'll get lots of hills and mountains. Grassland may be in short supply though.Visit First Cultural Industries

Yeah, it's always fun if you can camp on somoeone's gold early with a warrior, prior to their getting monarchy. Every four turns that you keep them from getting monarchy, is huge.It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

I usualy dont play with barbs and try and defend far away from my city's. The ocasional unit might slip through nut an army is quite rare.Originally posted by rah
Once you're celebrating, spitting out a few extra settlers isn't that big a deal.
And I've never lost a city on gold to barbs early in the game. I have lost the city on grass next to it.
Another thing is that you can easily build on high ground in 2x1x deity, in 2x2x king that will couse you to fall far behind in early expansion.Comment

Yes, raging is a bit different. It's tough to defend far away when that ship appears in that one square sea next to one of your cities.
