Some notes on growing your domain and settling new towns.

Town growth is circular, like a pebble dropped in a pond.

You grow your towns, with culture from buildings. Some give more culture than others and military will give negative culture. 198 culture is usually enough to settle a 2nd town, but if you wait ......................

OVERLAP, or why you want to grow dwelling extra big and settle further out. Green line is the border of your domain, settling new towns is all about cell ownership. You need 40 cells to settle a new town, 90 for a 3rd and I think it might be 140 for a 4th. 

 GREY line is cells claimed by dwelling, BLUE line is cells claimed by 2nd town, if it wasn't for the overlap, PURPLE town 3 is still small and has yet to add any new cells, to domain. 

I will be going for Monarchy politics, when I have it researched, so towns actually need to be close together. For all other politics, have towns far apart, to grab more cells and global resources.

BEWARE of settling too close to other players, talk to them first and negotiate :) It will save a lot of bother.

Sorry about the typo, in thread title, maybe the dev's can fix it?  Seems to be the "&" causing problems.
