Indeed, the map is great. (On the other hand my starting position is bad, but that's my luck...)

Re: Middle Era, Cradle of Dominion PBEM
 

I also got a somewhat unadvantageous starting position. Ah well.

Re: Middle Era, Cradle of Dominion PBEM
 

i join the group with the bad starting positions

Re: Middle Era, Cradle of Dominion PBEM
 

You can't possibly have a worser start than having only two neighbouring provinces. <_<

Re: Middle Era, Cradle of Dominion PBEM
 

Hum, the worse is... it's possible (province 150). I hope nobody started there.

Re: Middle Era, Cradle of Dominion PBEM
 

My start is not too bad, just to buck the trend...

Love the map too, good choice Adam.

Sympathy goes to Pythium whose god, Shoori appears to have died...

http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif You think 150 is bad? 175 is even worse, thrust me on that.

Re: Middle Era, Cradle of Dominion PBEM
 

Just looked at the map description and it says all players will have a minium of 4 adjacent provinces.

Also, another oddity, I have had dominion spread to a province about 7 away from one of my owned ones. I am no. 1 for dominion but seems wierd...

Re: Middle Era, Cradle of Dominion PBEM
 

Yes but 175 is nostart.

The list of forgoten #nostart commands and other errors is here (sorry I should have bumped this post more, it's a little too late, we play on the vanilla map I think, with two false seas).

(I was exceptionnally lucky when making tests on this map, the first I've started in 209 with 2 neighbours, the second in 150 with one, the third in a false sea -120, very good start location but a little strange for a land nation- finally I've edited the map before replaying)
