This is a new site to the west.

I think it will be non-viable within 4 turns... probably...

Its an unacceptable risk to send the settler off in that direction only to find we can't settle there, as we 'invade' Austrian territory, before we can mount a defence. Plus... we can't have quick ferrying of troops to and from the city.

The eastern potato is still the optimal site, then the coal site. (given current info)

The main tile is by far the most important one in the beginning because it's the only one that gets fully worked - the proposed river tile offers (20/5/10), while this one only gives (15/5/5). Furthermore this is far too close to the Austrians. If we attack them and not the Germans (and that's what it looks like) then a city in that spot would be the first target and quickly lost.

Without comparing exact data from each potato site, the city on a river is still the best option.
