OK I may need to rewrite this.....

The old way of doing it, creating a Version for each nation, avoided a problem I just found. Apparently (Im still testing it) the AI's can ally with you!

I added this....

to a map and then played as Man (race 3) starting everyone with 9 starting provinces so that we would be right up against each other immeadiately. So far I have to go out of my way to start a war.

So I many need to go with a config file or passed parameters (Im not much into making menus) to let the user select which races. Maybe also which map and other settings.

On the other hand, if this proves to be true that the AIs wont attack you, it opens up possibilitys for a newbies cheat game. They will wait for you to start the war.
