IndyPendant, I think what you are describing is exactly how starting positions should be determined and allocated, I'm all for it.

A starting position for all players that is as neutral and unbiased as possible is essential for any good and fair game (or fight, if you will )

RE: IndyPendant & Map

I have no objections to IndyPendant's offer. However, I would like to remind people I am administering the game, and _not_ playing in it.

So, I see three options.
1). Random start positions
2). Public non-random start positions by IndyPendant
3). Private non-random start positions by me. These can be nation-specific, or not.

I have no personal stake in the matter, so we'll go with whatever you guys decide unless an executive (read: nobody else makes up their mind) mandate is required.

I'm more concerned with how many players will join, and etcetera. Feedback on that is appreciated, but the default plan is:
Plan A). Wait a week. If no other sea nation joins or recruitment is slow, we'll go for the lower number of players. If another sea nation joins or we are close to our target, we'll go for the larger number.

We're at seven now. I'll aim for the 12 player setup, then.

These games really do fill up faster when I kick em into their own thread. Since you came up with the original idea for this game, IndyPendant, would you please come up with the starting positions and share them? After you're done with that, I'll upload a nice mod package, unless everybody already has all the necessary components?

I have made my choice. It is time to see if legions of Pythium equals their fame.
