Unfortunately Yes. But I've finished with the RGB file modifications, I'll post it here now.

It's big, but even with a 1 baud modem you'll probably get it before I finish with the .map file (all the neighbors & terraintypes need to be adjusted...)

Note that you won't be able to view it in Dominions until I finish the .map. But you can see it in an RGB viewer (like GIMP). The only change is that I'm splitting province #215 into 2 seperate provinces.

The real problem was that - thanks to my requirement that all start locations have at least 6 same-landtype neighbors - there are only 2 valid coastal start locations on Planet Rorschach. And thanks to it's unique geography, those starts are seperated by a single sea province. In other words, sailing nations that automatically start on coasts - like Formoria - will have turn 1 access to another player's capital. Decidedly Un-Fair. It's a subtle problem, but one that could make the game quite Un-Fun for one of our players.

It'll take me a few hours to fix, but anything worth doing is worth doing right.
