I think the most up do date version of Glory of the Gods 3.17 is likely to be a good choice. Anything we can do to balance the starting positions so someone doesn't start in a swamp or something is great. My pretender is ready.

Yes, it should be Glory of Gods 3.17.

Starting in swamp terrain should be fine, it's starting next to swamps that's the problem, no? (Obviously a lot of swamps are going to be both since the terrain is clumped together, but it's the neighbors that are the concern, not the cap itself.)

Thanks for setting this game up, WraithLord.

For clarification, the game is named YARG1, and pretenders need to be emailed with "YARG1" as the subject line. If you send your pretender with "YARG" or anything other than "YARG1" as the subject line, your pretender will not be accepted.

Probably kind of obvious, but I'll mention just to make sure: Please refrain from comments such as my pretender is ready, or I just loaded my pretender etc.

Anything that give a hint who you are should pass through rdonj via PM. TIA!

Yeah I agree with Micah, the one who start in the swamp down south is destined to lose for sure no matter the nation or the player, I know, I started there once and it wasn't pretty.

I started once with LA Mictlan planned for rush in NE corner of Cradle, and it was 10+ swamp provinces to nearest neighbor. That was fun.

That's what I meant when I spoke about balanced starting locations. I don't like randomness and situations where luck decides everything.
But as this seems to be the point of this very game, I don't mind
