I have a current game with approx. an 8 prov/player average. It's been brutal - and very fun. I don't expect this to be quite as intense (11 provs is enough that there is some logic to getting some research done before fighting) but it should still be action packed. The main problem is you'll be sitting in the water waiting to snipe provinces from weakened land nations.

And it does pay off later in the game as the finalists won't have as much micro to deal with (that alone is a huge selling point IMO).
BrodieSWR, very nice job on the map! Thanks again for doing that. It looks like it will be quite fun to play. As far as fixed vs. random starts if we go with fixed starts we can just post a JPEG indicating all the start locations. I'm fine with either approach but I lean towards using the fixed starts since you obviously put considerable thought into their placement.
