Yeah, it helps to get lucky with timezones and schedules. Still, if everyone does what you just did and immediately works on their next turn when they are last to send in a turn, the game will move at a good clip.

That's tough. It can really slow down your expansion if you are playing a nation that needs reources. Actually my last game on this map I was also hit with a couple of unrest events early on (also playing with only M1). I was very lucky I already had one expansion party out or it really would have killed my expansion efforts.

Lol. Ain't that the truth!


Random thoughts: You can glean a good amount of information about people's builds by looking at the score tables early on. Also, don't forget to look over the available mercenaries. They can provide a boost to your expansion and, a bit later, allow you to site search in paths you don't have.
