in my opinion the only reason to colonise is to get the heroic tactician award, other than that... eugh
this thread saddens me deeply
hmmm, i dunno...uh? How?
I will advice you to colonize first city near your first,not far than two islands
On all worlds I have played on my first city has always been colonised unless I can find a decent ghost town
for your second city u should look out for ghost [...] sometimes to found a city is better then conquering...
I would really think it depends on location. For example, in one world, I am literally hours away from anyone else in my alliance. In order to offer myself some degree of mutual support, colonizing a city on a nearby island would help. It may not be the best answer, but it would help serve as a location to help fortify my position. Even if you colonized a city on an island that didn't have any FV, it's not entirely too bad. Yes, I would lose out on a ton of resources, however, with a city on that type of island, you have less pressure to sit there and demand resources.
Colonizing is basically starting fresh from 1 on everything but it's really easier and you'll save a lot of troops and time.
Hmm, I'd say start of colonize [...] But if you want to go for conquest, try a ghost city.
My personal opinion is if there is no one that you could conquer around you just colonise. But if there is a decent ghost town within 2 islands from the 1st city then I would take that. Back in Rho my second town was a 2.5k ghost.
Yep, ghost towns or colonizing is my way
Definitely colonize if you are just starting that chapter of grepolis.
