I still agree with Sky. We have roaming barbs AND military police is also important.

I suggest we call it Rotterdam anyway. The looks of it are too similar to ignore, grasslands and cows, a river to the south, and that coast we see to the west must be great britain.

Sky & Aggie,
We have a great food & production bonus. We will grow in 5 turns. One cow will be mined after 6 turns. After turn 20 (or so) we will have a curragh and a granary. Therefor the risk is small. I usually take this risk anyway, I never play below deity level, and hardly ever get kicked by the AI soon. What is the problem?

And a warrior only takes 2 or 3 turns to build. In return you get more hapiness in the cities and a bit more safety.

Just to be in the debate, 2 or 3 turns is almost a city. I still think a warrior is worth it - never for the city itself in the first 20 turns or so, but to explore the surrounding land and pick our second city spot.

Well killer, I've seen several instances of IA taking an undefended capital in c3c. One of those instances was the first c3c game I ever played.

Or maybe look at my spoiler for the KoD-game which ended round about 2800BC
