... You might not have seen it but in the first round of the game (did it seem to think a really long time) many units drowned. Water units on land, and land units in water. But then thats also why some of the provinces seemed to have no special troops, maybe thats a "feature" instead of a bug.

I did notice that. I started out with an acquatic commander, which is how I started with a Sceptre of Authority, which I stole from him immediately, and game in handy against the Soul Gate forces later. I started out in a costal province and ordered him to sea on turn one, but IIRC although he took the order, he didn't make it even to go die against the independent forces there.

Still, I think it's actually a feature as you said, even if it is weird.

... Is that an old download? I thought I fixed that. It was much worse. I had started some games where I didnt even own my starting province. I would be under seige right away, or sometimes I was the seiger of someone elses castle. That was a strange game, starting right away with someone elses gem income instea of mine.

It was 2-4 months old. I think I have the right gem income for Man (air, nature, whatever...) but a funky unnamed death castle. Maybe my castle was stomped by a random castle, but it wouldn't always happen?

I had a concept for a Semi-Random game but no one showed an interest in helping.

Ya that's exactly what I had in mind. What kind of help were you looking for?

... Sounds like Leif's random generator would be good for that. He has one that uses theme files to set alot of variables.

Again, sounds like the same sort of thing. Now, if I just had a pile of free time...
