I am fine with these settings. Feel free to host the game if you want (I would rather not do so myself); either way is fine with me.

A map with hand-set starting points would be better, both to check the size of the map (some medium maps can get *quite* big).

Ok, I'll set the game up. So we'd probably need someone to make a map for us? With no ruins, right?

No ruins indeed. Incidentally, you may have to upload my Empire file yourself. It looks like the Odd Bug (where I cannot connect to PBW, among many other sites) is back with a vengeance. *Grumbles*

I won't be able to actually start the game till tonight, assuming we can get a map by then. If you can't get your .emp file uploaded email it to me.

I can do the whole thing if you guys prefer.

Thanks for the offer. Fyron made a map and the game has started.

Here's an example of a new map type I was playing around with- Rich Resource maps. This one is a modded FQM Standard map but it could be applied to a stock game map too. The overall effect on the game is that it takes resources out of the equation and should speed up the game slightly. If nothing else it's something different!
