Wow, neat ideas in here. I especially like the sov grid. Much nicer than the array I used in Excel. Got me so interested I started messing around with Google docs and ended up with a different take on the entire thing. Not sure if it's helpful or not but I'll share it too as a way to say thank you.

mCrow have this one (just a screenshot attached) - it's missing the tax slider, but gives a reasonably good feel for the food-generating potential of a square.
Uniquely, this one:
- Assesses the likelihood that a town on the map will want to claim food sov, and makes a 'contention heat map'.
- Makes 'Farmstead build level' suggestions, based on requirements.

I really appreciate it Salararius, and I like some of the approach, especially the buildings tables.
I am about to start a new version to fit some more things and adjust the sheet, I will probably use some of your approach :-)
Thanks !

Look as a nice tool to address sovereignty decisions.
I would like to have a private talk with you about it, will send IGM.

I realized that I could easily add production rates and basic resources usage (from production) pretty easily. I added that so you can now see how many spears, cows, etc... your cities will be capable of producing.

JimJams, could you implement advanced resource production cost into your city planer like it is here:
Especially food costs for cows and horses can effect city size.

import food to produce cows and horses. it will more than pay for itself if you sell a percentage. I don't think that should be a factor in city planning, personally
