    I will never understand why some people on Apolyton find you so clever. You're predictable, mundane, and a google-whore and the most observant of us all know this. Your battles of "wits" rely on obscurity and whenever you fail to find something sufficiently obscure, like this, you just act like a 5 year old. Congratulations, molly.

      If you choose the sane starting conditions (size, # of civs, etc etc) you get the same leaders in the same neighbourhood.

        I was wondering about that. Was it Civ3 that had a default setting where you would start near civilizations with similar starting traits, and they arranged them among the civs so that this made them similar to their real-life geographical groupings?

          I think that (non random start) was only before the patch.

          There was apparently a bug that had to do with the random number generation/seeding.

            I played on huge map AFTER the patch as Qin and I get Inca beside me, Isabella and Caesar before me and right behind them Napoleon, Cleo and Monti.

            There is no randomization at all.

              In Civ3 you can choose "culturally linked starting locations". Each civ was either American, European, Middle Eastern, or Asian. If you chose cultural linkage civs with the same culture would start next to each other.

                It does seem that civs that start with fishing are slightly more likely to get a coastal start. May be my imagination tho.
