I screwed up and selected Jotun at the same time as I chose Pythium - Please remove Jotun.

Maybe you'd also like Easy magic research, to facilitate your Wrathing?

More seriously, if I changed it to Rich, I'd have to expect / encourage a lot of people to want to change their Pretenders.

A normal richness on the Cradle does mean a little bit resource poor setting, which presumably people took into account when creating their pretenders.

And in retrospect, as Arch sideways suggested, I should have made Caelum an AI controlled nation - too big an advantage on the map.

Maybe. But perhaps people who haven't played this map before aren't aware of the starvational nature of this map. After all, you remember how it was the times *WE* played this map...

But hey, it was only a suggestion. I WILL KILL YOU!

Maybe you should have Banned Ermor, too. The fact that everyone will be sort of starving for resources won't affect Ermor, since they have zero population.

Alternatively, you can just accept that certain maps promote certain flavors. After all, wasn't the entire point of this to have a good, clean game, with no wonky house rules?

Looks like we've got a full house. Time to kick some serious butt.
