Re: Are you tough enough to be the "King of the Hill"?
I kept looking at the game, Geo. When I saw it at 50 turns this morning, I thought, "Hmmmm, the game's at 50 turns, that's not bad against Asmala...I wonder if he's surprising Asmala."
Then I see your post.
Live and learn, I guess. In the beginning, it seems EVERY item in research is screaming for attention and sometimes a quick click of the mouse results in a choice we [don't] understand later.
For the both of you, I hope the map turned out being as fair as it could be. As I said, or implied, when I place starting points, I don't place them as far away as possible. I think finding a "happy" medium point that gives an appropriate amount of systems between you (based on the map size), yet room behind you, will keep each player guessing just HOW close you are to each other.
