A simple matter of Domination I

[M. Darkheart]

Last changes have been made, I will start the game soon (about 1 hour from now) with these settings. So any comments or in redbulls case an e-mail with his civ should be done within that time.

Redbull, I know how to change a civ name but if you don't have similar settings I don't know what will happen. I'm still testing with Mathemagician.

Does that mean im last in the queue? Id better get a good starting position this time.

Maquil, you'll probably get the worst oi!

[Maquiladora]

Yeah thats what ive heard about the map generator

[Frozzy]

I think Activision designed it to give the Human a subtle edge over the AI. Thats why the Orange is usually 2nd to you if you don't attack them

You mean starting position? Well, I can say that I can't imagine anyone having a worse starting position than I have. I'm on an extremely small island. I could hardly fit the 3 free settlers I got from the mod lite. Now what to do with those free settlers you get when founding a city? Guess I need a boat.

Anyway, I like a challenge.

Im guessing the map generator doesnt account for whether your on an island or not. It just thinks "well heres a nice initial radius for your first city, now accept it". Although a better position might be surrounded by land but poorish terrain.

I like a challenge too, but humans can be very unforgiving

[Mathemagician]

and the map generator doesnt know about us having 6 settlers at the game start due to modlite...
