Crap! Forgot the image

I say Yellow... but I'm tempted to say Green as well... I'll listen to the vets first

[Devil of Truth]

I’d go with yellow too. It’s got the ocean and beaver. And that’s a pretty good combo.

[Nimrod]

I vote yellow

[Menlas]

Yellow seems fine indeed

[checkMate]

Takes to long to get to yellow. Lets just build at red. Rabbit style.

If we do go so far as yellow, would it not be better to go one more North so that we would gain the Pearl of Great Price.

Red. And Nimrod --- Please build that Phalanx Bn ASAP... We may not run into any barbarians this early, but with 15 other warring nations wandering about the world, the chances aren't bad that one of their scouts will come our way -- and we are undefended with our lone warrior so far away from home.

Yellow is perfect: no overlap with Atlantis and leaves enough room for a 3rd city in the north (which can pick up the Pearl).

[Pave]

Yellow, yellow, yellow.Yellow rulez!

[TheBirdMan]

Yellow.

No rabbits to me - I better like chicks

And yes - build a phalanx as soon as possible.

Yellow is a mistake. Go for Red. This is one major key to making a strong civilization as fast as possible. Many players make this mistake of not wanting to "overlap" their city tiles. Some players humorously dismiss rapid growth as "rabbit" strategy -- this is a mistake as well. Believe me -- Forget about "overlap" and
"asthetics" if you want to build a strong civilization that will overpower your enemies. Build fast and strong -- GO RED!

[checkMate]

I can't believe ths, let me make one more plea...

Better Red than Dead.

This is a democracy, CheckMate -- Adds to the challenge! All we can do is try to persuade, and then work with what the masses give us
