Turn 2: We found a land! That's the Indies!
Turn 3: Pity, there are incans next to the corn. No option to put their head on a pole... Turn 4: Nice, a source of silver. Plus fur. No food in sight, a pity. Turn 8: Founded the city near fish and two tobacco. Turn 9: Added the soldier to the city.

How about founding the first city in between the corn and the furs (you always get that one for free from the natives) and the second city near the silver?

Good suggestion. You want me to play again? The city we have now can produce a lot of food and tobacco. Forest is halfway decent, plus we have some ore. In hindsight I could just as well have settled near the other fish, but I wanted to keep options open for the silver. 3 silver btw.

Nice. Dock is almost always my first build.
We need something to sell, so next colonist (we'll get one from Europe soon) should found near Silver if not he is a Scout. Or what do you think?

You are right. Probably one thing I am starting with too late in the game normally. manufacturing.

Noobish lurking, out of curiosity.
Does population grow like in Civ, ie. with food harvested from land and stored in granary box ? Is this a random map, or do you always get to play a real map ?
