Maybe i am missing somthing... but is there a way to specify what race starts where in a senerio, like in civ2? I used to like playing as the english and starting on an island, but it seem when i start up the Earth map and select english it starts me at a random location. Thanks in advance

Yeah I have the same problem. It seems that firaxis has made it on purpose. And their great explanation to it is " REWRITING HISTORY!!!!". Hope they will realise that its not rewriting but remaking the whole mankin. I guess they will wisen up and put that option in the patch.

I miss the wonder movies, myself. They were a pleasant surprise in Civ 2.
Editing starting locations would be great. I also wish there were something like an "elbow room" option when starting a game. I like to have time to putter around and build, and it throws me off when I get plunked down cheek to cheek with a rival on turn one.
