Because of Harry's exhaustive and in-depth research/trial-and-error, I have changed my vote to having Wittlich Ost south of the cow.
See referenced thread for complete explaination.

I would actually suggest we either
a) move back to the hill
or
b) move west to the hill/coast tile next to the cows. Two turns to get there.
And I like b). Claims the land - and lets us build on the hills to the south next - and the Wittlich Point. Three cities on hills. All within 3 of the point. Nice set-up.
No cities on the plains.Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war .... aw, forget that nonsense. Beer, please.Comment

yes
none on the plains
I am not sure what we can do

I dont think we should do it.
1) We might get attacked on the way to that tile.
2) Even if we manage to found a city there, it will take more time for reinforcements to arrive in the case of war.
3) It will piss them off even more.
4) We might encounter borders very close to those hills, and founding a city so close to other civ's borders without their agreement is an unofficial hostile act."Beware of he who would deny you access to information, for in his heart he dreams himself your master" - Commissioner Pravin Lal.Comment

With the current hieghtened tension with other civs on Bob, I have to concur with Jon - Put Wittlich Ost on the hill and place it there quickly. Right now, we have no city on Bob so we actually have no claim to a piece of the land. Once we have the city built, we will then have a viable claim.

Agreed. Build on the hill."Beware of he who would deny you access to information, for in his heart he dreams himself your master" - Commissioner Pravin Lal.Comment

Build on hill. I have voted for this the whole time"Do not honour the worthy, And the people will not compete. Do not value rare treasures, And people will not steal. Do not display what people want, And the people will not have their hearts confused. A sage governs this way: He empties peoples minds and fills their bellies. He weakens their wills and strengthens their bone. Keep the people always without knowledge and without desires, For then the clever will not dare act. Engage in no action and order will prevail."-Loazi "The Classic of The Way and Its Powers"Comment

Unless we are going to put more cities on Bob I would rather pull our settler back. It will take an excessive number of units to protect it compared to having the city on Estonia and we will spend turns shuttling units and workers back and forth to support one city.
On the other hand, having a city there gives credance to the GoW ranting and raving about our invasion and supports the smokescreen.Comment

yes we need that smokescreen. If GS gets any idea of what may be coming, we could lose out on a lot of techs."Do not honour the worthy, And the people will not compete.

So build the damned city already!
