civ placements on world maps

[soctt Muller]

Has anybody else run into this. When I use a world map scenerio all of the civ's starting locations are scattered-as in the Germans in australia, the zulu's in europe etc.. This can not be right-can it? I would appreciate any help in fixing this-the game editor does not seem to be helping at this point. You can manipulate player start locations-but this doesn't do a thing. I tinkered with it and after I played as the americans and wound up in China. Restarted the game and wound up in Australia. And frankly-its just killing me. Any help would be great.

I will return the game if this is not fixed.

I am encouraging every one who finds this to be a big frick'n mistake to email firaxis and ask them to patch it. I can not believe this either. I was lucky enough to get an email from Jeff Green at CGW and he thinks that its not a bug, just an odd design decision. It makes me sick to think that the game is sitting on my desk in a limited edition tin and I can not play it because YOU CAN NOT HAVE ZULU'S STARTING IN DENMARK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

Be glad you can play it. The tin is sitting in front of me mocking me because I can't.
