    c3c starting position. not a very strong one.

    ok. this is definitely the worst starting position I've ever seen.



    More than a screenpage (at 1600x1200) of water on all sides.

    The civ in question still hasn't got mathematics while the rest of the world is in the industrial age.

            No horses, no other resources. (that I know of, I'm currently researching steam power)

              Well, historically accurate, if no fun for the player who were to get such a start.

                You are thinking of AU208 (total war).

                  Thank you for getting my joke.

                    Hey, do you have a save of that start position yxhuvud? Looks like a good challenge, or OCC.

                        If anything, its a pretty defendable position, and I doubt the AI could ever assault it once you fortressed and garrisoned the second land square.

                          I'm surprised the Iroquois did not CTRL-SHIFT-Q out of that one...

                            So yx.... what are you going to do with them now you've found them? Can't land a unit and Leader farm as you couldn't be sure you wouldn't take the city, there are no resources, it would be hopelessly corrupt...

                            Maybe the Iroquois' power will show if it reaches the UN vote - just imagine if they held the deciding vote!

                              Well put. I was trying to think of a way to say that without 100 words. Very cool.
