Players need the map image but not the .map file. Llamaserver will need it though.

Okay, good deal. I didn't need to bother give the map files to anyone then, since the image comes with the game.

EDIT: Okay, all done. The middle sea position is deleted to make a 23 player game. Nobody need worry further about it.

He did say ok. I think EA Oceania has a fair number of things going for it, at least in the water. Transitioning on land is the real hurdle.

Well, there's always the build yourself an impregnable base in the water, then clam your way to victory. In a game this size, without limits on clams or the big late game Astral spells, it's not a bad plan.

Probably better than my late game plans.

Which are, pretty much, get killed in the mid-game to avoid late-game burnout.
