Your starting military unit should make expanding circles (or arcs, depending on the geography) around your first city. The idea here is to find the sites for your next cities. In your capital, build a Scout.

Q. How do you stack units in Civ 5?
In Civ 5 you cannot stack military units, which gives them more importance and also equalizes civs to a certain extent. In Europa Universalis 4, you can stack units. However, once those units pass a certain number, called the “supply limit” for the province, you start losing health on your army.
Q. Where do I build my first city in Civ 5?
Founding cities near them (1 to 3 tiles away) is the best way to assure that. Never forget that a city may only work tiles that are at most 3 tiles away from its main city tile. So, when choosing the spot, try to include as many resources within 3 tiles of it as you can.

General Strategy
- Designate several cities as “training centers” for units.
- Found or capture a coastal city if necessary.
- Preserve your.
- Try to ally yourself with a Militaristic City-State.
- Try to maintain a steady conquest pace.
- Puppet, then annex.
- Don’t completely absorb all the cities you capture.
Make sure all units are not grouped. Then select one unit of the 5 of each you want in the new group. Then hold shift and select the units you want to add to that group. Once all the ones you want are selected you can move them all together as one.
Q. What should your first military unit do in Civilization 5?
The Civ 5 AI isn’t brilliant, but it’s smart enough to tear you apart if you play badly. A victorious player plans both strategy — the long term goals and methods of a war — and tactics — the methods used to achieve these goals. The strategy and tactics used in the different Eras are discussed below.
Q. Do you need a scout in Civilization 5?
In your capital, build a Scout. The only reason you might not want a Scout is if you are pretty sure you’re not going to get any ruins with it early – you’re on a tiny island, for instance. Second, build a military unit. You’re going to need a unit to defend your borders.
Q. What should the settler do in Civilization 5?
The Settler should go with the Worker and at least one military unit to found a second city as soon as possible. After the Settler I’ll tend to produce another Worker (to replace the capital’s worker) and perhaps another military unit depending on the level of hostility around.
