I'd say that I should go for curragh, warrior, granary...

My preferred build order would be a couple of curraghs/warriors, then a settler (the food bonus here is huge and we will be a large size with a good production), then a granary, then settler factory.

The two cows with the 3 city food means you can mine both cows and still get +5 food at size 2. [eek]

BTW, we should be able to get a warrior and a settler from our capital every 4 turns by turn 30 or 40. :D

[eek]
What happened ? Got kicked out of your parents place ?
[lol]

LOL, parents place is on 14.4, consider this an upgrade ;) Are u coming over here to grab a beer?

the wuss is in bed already

With such a start I would build no warriors at all in this city. A small risk!

curragh, granary, settler, settler, curragh, settler. City 2 can build defense. With two mind cows, an extra curragh between the first 2 settlers seems fair too.

Not building a granary before the first settler seems rather weird to me.

With 30 civs, the chance you get one on your island is big, leaving your capital without military for so long is just pure suicide.
Thats why u first make a settler before the first granny so u can quickly have mil units.
Plus the MPs are always useful...Your strategy looks crazy to me Stapel :D

We have 3 cows, two fishes and one tobacco in expanded city borders [eek]. Not to mention our river.

You sure you're not playing on the real world map? Land with lotsa cows and lotsa fish, that sound like a familiar place [rolleyes]
