Pangagea , if there is still enough room for me

Okay, looks like we're probably full.

Um, Valerius and GameExtremist - I'm not sure you guys can really count yourselves as newish any more. You're both very competent players. Maybe you could join MysteryMammal, or if you would prefer a smaller game I can start one up (looks like it'll be full in an hour or two!).

Ok, no problem, I'll wait until the next game. I liked the specs on this game (number of players, provinces, EA) so I joined even though I figured I might not qualify.

Okay thanks Valerius. In that case I'll start another one with similar specs soonish (when I reckon demand may have recovered from this little flurry of new games). I was beginning to think myself that some smaller games might be nice.

No need to rush in creating a new game on my account. I couldn't resist joining Dolphin, regardless of what map size it turns out to be.

can i sign up as ulm?

davegg - Unfortunately I forgot to list the game as full when it got full. But I will put you as a reserve, which actually means you have a fair chance of being in the game I think, particularly as I've listed Aethyr without him actually saying he'll play!

Okay leave me off the starting lineup then ; )

Okay guys, I have been working all morning on a modified version of Parganos. A common complaint with Parganos was that the terrain types were too clustered - one player might have exclusively farmland, another only wastelands. I've changed the terrain types a lot to be much fairer (wasteland and farmland aren't marked anyway so that's easy, and most of the mountains have been changed to border mountains).

Now, there's definitely space for a water player on Parganos. Also I've already spent some time for Mara on choosing start positions for 7 land + 1 water player. Does anyone fancy switching to a water nation? No worries if not.
