		Seems like more players and a bigger map are being approved. Anyone have a suggestion for the map, or estimated provinces per player?

		Thank you for allowing me to play.  I have been eagerly awaiting a chance to play my first mp game, but had to watch all the slots fill up while I waited for Shrapnel to slowly approve my forum registration request.  I have played maybe ten sp games, including thrwe trying to "perfect" my present Lanka build.  Where may I find the Ettin fix? 
 
I suggest 10ish provinces per player. 
 
Good game to all!

		15 provinces per player is "normal"

		Hmm, if we're looking for a map with 15 provinces per player, how about Hieronica?  http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/showp...49&postcount=1
It has 150 provinces, 19 sea. Not the most exciting or beautiful map I guess, but it looks balanced.

 That could explain why I always receive an AI welcome wagon by turn ten.

		Sigil, the download link should be here:  http://www.llamaserver.net/gameinfo....owerOfElephant
But it doesn't include the normal CBM 1.92, I think, so you'll need to find it elsewhere. Oh, and if you're unfamiliar with llamaserver, you should familiarize yourself with it.
 
Hieronica seems okay for a map otherwise, but I fear there may be a bunch of terrible starting positions which will result in people requesting a restart of the game.

		Holey:  I had originally taken TC, but I'm happy to take Caelum if you'd like TC (It was 50-50 choice for me and I've already gotten a non-death 3 setup this time for Caelum! LOL)

		So, have we now decided for a map? I would not mind playing on Urraparrand or Rhinos ...
