Magic sites can be anywhere. That being said, some sites are more likely to appear in certain terrain. As an example, forest provinces are more likely to contain nature sites. The icons on the right of the province description will tell your more about the terrain.

The icons on the left side of the province description, like the little suns, are just temporary qualities of the province. They can be changed by a number of factors. For example, many provinces suffer from heat in the summer season and from cold during the winter seasons. The biggest factor in effecting these qualities are dominion.

I was actually talking about the little suns on the map itself - not the heat / cold scales. I know what those are. But thanks. I was worried that I wouldn't have easy access to any magic sites, since none of the likely provinces are near me.

[AreaOfEffect]

Ah, well yeah. Those provinces are just more magical. They are more likely to have magic sites. That being said I've played games on this map before using Acashic Record and it can happen that nothing is there and a bunch of good sites can show up in unlikely places. Its all luck.

Behold, brave eskimos defeated the corrupt armies of Arcoscephale. Their army barbarised, the enemy hid cowardly behind the backs of foreign crossbow mercenaries and hired elephants from the east - but to no avail. From the depth of the sea, the just rage of Dagon, the Awakened Sleeper, Devourer of Heretic came, wielding two frost-covered blades who shone with cold light that pierced enemy hearts with fear. One by one they fell, and though elephants knocked mighty Ulam-Ulam around a bit, the victory was ours before the day was gone. The igloos are thawing with joy!

I thought this was a land nation only game? Is it going to skew everything if one player has pretty much free reign on all of the sea provinces?

[Kamamura]

The only nations that were unavailable were Ermor and Rylegh due to their dominion effects. There were no objections about Atlantis, you could see it on the list from the start.

[Kamamura]

Besides, Atlantis starts on land, not in the sea. It has amphibious units, but other nations have them too.

It is no easy thing to play a water nation.

[zenphos]

I was actually referring to this comment from llamabeast
"...this will be a land nation only game.."
But I figure he was talking about the parganos map having no water sites.
I was just wandering what difference it might make if one nation has easy access to plenty of provinces which other nations cannot attack. Plus it is a lot harder to defend your borders verse water nations.
It is not a big deal, this is my first MP game, as can be seen by looking at the statistics, and was just wandering how much of a difference it could make.

[gowb]

Since there is no gold gain or magic sites from the sea provinces, it isn't that big of a deal. Or it doesn't seem like it to me. Like you this is my first MP game so I'm not entirely sure.
