Point Counting Bug

[rfielder]

Attached are two screen captures - one before a road is placed, and one after the road is place.

The road gave green two more cities on the farm.  However, the points went up by 9 for green, from 147 to 156.  As far as I can see, the points should have increased by 6.

In the first capture, I used a blue arrow to show where the road was going to be placed, and black arrows to indicate the two cities that green can then count.

This is with 4.0.1.  However, I have noticed this in the past with the last version of V3 as well.

Am I missing something?  Or is JCZ miscounting?

One of the two completed cities added to green's farm is besieged, which makes it worth two cities (i.e. 6 points) for farming purposes. That's why it went up nine points and not six.
