Hey guys...

I cannot open my latest turn. I have enabled the mods, disabled the mods. No dice. I downloaded and unzipped - no dice.

I get a null list of nations when I look to open the game.
Kingmaker and Worthy the only two mods enabled.

Ok. I downloaded it again, and opened it. And now I can open the turn.

And I open it up to find that it says I staled. Which I know I did not do. I remember the turn distinctly, remember exactly what I built (5 levite troops and a leader). Remember which territory I attacked blind.

And, after I sent in the turn, I posted on here that I had to attack blind. Which I really didn't care for.

I don't know what heppened, since all I had to do was hit reply- but I'm already too far behind the 8 ball.

The starting conditions - not being able to see adjacent neighbors (I still can't) with weak starting troops is just too big a disadvantage.

Rather than boosting Death Match; I wish the same emphasis was made on making starting conditions fair. People make a great fuss about setting the strength of independents to 5 or 7 beneffiting rush nations. But I find this whole thing about 3 turns of not being able to see some or all of the indies strengths a MUCH bigger deal.

I'm out.
