about those Victory Points
When I started the server (from the unix command line) I didn't give it any switches concerning victory points. If you look at "options -> show game settings", you'll see that there are no options concerning victory points or other alternate victory conditions.
Yet on the map there are victory points visible in certain provinces.
I don't know what this means.
Since we are playing in teams of two, it seems unlikely that any game-ending victory condition will be achieved by any one nation. So I think we can pretty much ignore the victory points, except that you should be aware that provinces which contain a victory point spread dominion as if there were a temple in that province and as if you had a current maximum dominion level of 5. (But it doesn't increase the number of temples you own -- it just spreads dominion as if there were a temple there.)
Unless the buggy nature of these victory points means that they *don't* spread dominion, since victory points aren't supposed to be in the game at all.
