MP: SantaPatata game - Noob/Inter game (8/8)

Vanheim please

I'm not sure (since I don't have much experience here) but it maybe a bad idea to start 12 players fixed start map with 8 players.
Will the map have 4 large gaps (allocated for 12-8 players missing)? Then some of participants will have unfair advantage to expand in these gaps.

well it just gonna be a challenge to get those area first and hold them,i dont really see a problem with that and im not even sure if those area without player will be large.

We should probably modify the map to have 8 fair starting locations. If some nations have a lot more extra space between them than others it will help them a lot.

Agreed

[serbal]

at worse let make it 12 ppl game gonna be less complicated?

i dont mind either way but i dont feel like modding the map

[arnob]

The easiest is to take this map with the no fixed start option. It exist already on llamaserver ...

[Ragnarok-X]

12 players would be with me, if everyone is reliable.

I prefer smaller games where I can actually see all the other players and know what they're up to. 12 is the maximum limit, but it's okay if the rest of you want it.

As Arnob said. We can use: Land of Legends Modified:

135 land + 18 sea.
No fixed starts.

Land of Legends with no starting on the island, also some of the poor starts removed
