I'm in...how many rules you want to throw in? The 150 turn peace rule might be very interesting in an island game...perhaps a rule that any island claimed (i.e. settled) cannot be intruded upon? A navy would be very important. We'd have to play on a map with Lots of islands...

How about every city has the turn number in which it was founded as part of its name (i.e New York 22). If you land on an island and build and it has been previously settled, you have to destroy the city the same turn your opponent discovers the "trespass". Therefore, if you build before exploring the island completely you are taking a chance. But you can if you don't mind the risk. It will make exploration very important , and could lead to some dramatic shifts in power. To make it interesting we will have to set up the map to have many islands, to push people to sea and get exploration happening early.

Just out of curiousity, why don't you like using Wonders? Do you think they unbalance the game? (I don't mind...was just wondering.)

I dont mind except say if one civ gets caught in a clearly bad land start whereas the other has a better leg up

then that player would not only have a better start but also get to the key wonders quicker and then really put themselves out in front

watch out not to play blue and orange respectively, guys. the game might put you on the same continent right away.
