What the heck I'll try out Caelum. It seems like quit a powerful nation.

Oh and FM_Surrigon, I'm currently in one other MP game and I am playing Vanehiem and I have to tell you not being able to get your pretender off of the main island is a real pain. I was quite set back by it.

I was also set back by not knowing the starting locations of everyone on the map which you can learn by just starting a game with all of the players set to human.

I went into the crowded mainland and was quickly turned back and it cost me a good 4 turns. I then went south and took it from matchaka which was easier than getting involved with all of the nations of the mainland. I don't think I'll win that game ( faerun_folly ) but I learnt where to go and where not to go with Vanehiem that is for sure!

The starting conditions on this map are wildly differnet. You *really* should make a game with all of the players played by your to figure out the lay of the land. It will help stop you from making small ( perhaps not so small ) errors like I did!
