Good luck y'all!

(thanks for organizing this Anaconda)

Your most welcome.

BTW, did you try capturing a province this turn, but got beaten? Thats the only way explaining why you got lead position in the hall of fame without jumping in provinces?! Except, if you got your army patrolling, and some indies tried to seize your seat of power, but you drove them off. Thats pretty much all possibilities there are.

Also, I can spill some beans too: I started my second fort already.

I bid on a merc that was in the hall of fame :P

EDIT: I call shenanigans on the second fort. Unless you got tons of money somehow- major awesome random event? If you did- that would be awesome for you. *and bad for your neighbors*

I am true to my word, cross my heart and hope to die.

thats one crowded map

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!
 

No kidding. I started with only 3 land provinces connected to my capital, and have already found a neighbor in each of those three directions. Giving everyone a buffer of one province around their capital, I have a 'natural domain size' of 5 (yes, five) provinces. Yeah us!

Somewhere, at least one or two nations are chuckling because they won the lottery and have a lot of room. Its obvious that the only fair way to go is preset balanced start sites, but I can never quite decide if that is actually what I want to limit my playing to. The alternative is to take your chances and only try to compete in those games where you get a nice start. If you land in the crowd, go out in as big a blaze of glory as you can muster, but do it quickly and move on to a new game.

He wasn't kidding- a fort up already- WOW.

I saw lots of black candles last turn but havn't opened this turn set yet.

Jotun may have the right approach for such a crowded map
