New Agreement -
what's the relationship between a point and a tile?

(I'd argue that a map is a collection of tiles...and that a tile has a point(x,y,z).)

Next question - is a city a tile? (It is in Civs and SMAC...but to make it a tile, implies that it can't move, and a fantasy type game may allow for cities to move).

New That's why City derives from Placeable.
It's something you stick on top of a tile - not integral to the tile itself. And yes, it does let you create mobile cities. :D

(It also makes it easier to remove the City object when somebody drops a planetbuster on it...)
They say a city in the desert lies/ The vanity of an ancient king/ But the city lies in broken pieces/ Where the wind howls and the vultures sing/ These are the works of man/ This is the sum of our ambition...
