what is the modded nature of the map? I can't recall off hand.
From the readme:

"It is played on the Orania map that is included with the official release with a province setup that is identical to the Orania War scenario. The major change in the "Nasty Edition" is that every side starts with several powerful sites, units, or leaders, and that independents are set to strength 9. Victory goes to the nation that first occupies seven capitals including his own. Tread carefully."

ahh, its the nasty edition then. why didn't you just say so?

I would agree w/ cohen in this case though, that blood stones are extremely important to abysia and mictlan in order to get earth going, though i agree that any limited rule would be a pain.

I believe this map could really screw up the game.

If someone checks the release note, all sites and stuff could be seen.
Here Abysya ie starts with Steel Ovens, + 40 resources and 20% const bonus.

Atlantis starts with "The Water Solstice" that gives 50 bonus in Enchantment.

Ulm starts with the Ancient Forge ... mmm hammer, + smith, + forge = 70% forge bonus (but it's only Ulm Smith limited)

These are only some of the stuff that could really change the way of gaming, however now I shut up because this is your game, and you can set it up as you prefer.

Well I'd prefer new-er players, but anyone is welcome. Arco is already claimed however... (doh). There are 4 players from the previous Fools game who get first dibs. I'll post when they've all picked.

I hope to play with you in other games.

i always think that the nasty edition should create a hilarious game. I only wish i wasn't currently overcommitted.

hey soapyfrog, you might want to list which nations are already taken

For sure, it will be a radical and hopefully very fun game
