Oh - may I suggest changing the starting provinces in the .map file before the game? That way, no one knows where the other nations are, since only the host needs the modified map file.

The .map file that everyone currently has is only the version released for testing. Starting locations for all nations were just some random provs I clicked on with the mouse. I am sending the .map away now to a third party (who isnt playing in this game) who will randomize all the start locations. That way no one will have any advanced knowledge.

Everyone begin preparing your pretenders now. Lets try and shoot for a Monday or Tuesday start for this game!

Not 10 point cost, I raised it arbitrarily to 100, just to clarify this sort of situation.

Ironhawk has gracefully notified me that Mictlan is still open. I'll take Mictlan then.
