</font>I would like to see an option where you could play a "equal start" game where players could choose a game with little or no luck involved at the start.
Something to eliminate the need to restart untill host gets no freebee techs...
Something to where all players can get an equal start if they want to...
Something so that no player is right next to each other if they want...
Something to allow a player to get back in a game if they are booted, yet keep an AI from taking over his Civ if he quits and just eliminate his civ if he quits...
Maybe some way to keep the Ai from messing with your civ if you get booted.
Can there be an option for any of this kind of thing? Hope so...

FINAL DRAFT

Randomness is a great feature of this game that we all love, but we need the options that could minumize it when needed when starting games.

1: To be able to choose that no one starts next to each other or starts with free techs or 1 vs 2 settlers. -instead of wasting time restarting or trying to make a scenario...

2: To be able to choose equal or more equal starting points, terrain, and landmass wise.
- this way no one needs to end up starting five squares from an opponant, or being in arctic while another is in river/grassland.

3: To be able to customise your titles and Civs name and save them so you don't have to type them in every time.

4: If it is a no AI game then no AI should be able to take over a human Civ if he drops from game.
