you get a free cit bonus.. we know this.
what most people dont know.. (i think) is that the free cits drive up your price for citizens.. (progressive pricing).
this tip is worth a little extra food.
when you start building a new city, cue up your other cities to build citizens...
by doing this, you claim the lower price for building cits.
thus then ones you get bonus will be higher priced cits...
just my 0.02$ for playing korea.
while talking about korea, here are a few more tips.
Sieging cities, while nice, takes away 5 free citizens that you would have gained if you had built that next city yourself.
some ideas here are let the other guy take his city back , then build another city, then take the city back from him..
this is really a subjective case. for obvious reasons you may not wish to lose that city you just gained. as well you lose the timer for assymilation. but you can also boom more with more cits and another city ( which you may not have been able to build if you had that sieged city)
another possible (but risky)rategy for playing korea is to let them siege one or 2 of your cities without much resistance... then you are set back 1-2 cities and will be able to build another city... if you do this, then you can build 1-2 more cities, gain land elsewhere and you will get another free 5-10 citizens from building the city...then just take back what was yours and you are ahead both cits and land....
sound simple???
let me know what you all think of this strategy...
