A big applause for you Spoonwood ..... if you get motivation from other players and still want to thank you for the motivation you give me ......

I've run for a map that might compete with Drazek's game for a few weeks or so now, going back to the fall. I have found a 4611 map, but I had a weak start.

This one looks very promising!:



Not just one early food bonus near a river city, but 3!:



Too bad I had a misandrist around:



I retired right after that. Not the most promising landform (the Ottomans who are orange built the Pyramids).



I've started playing a large histographic game where I don't know the domination limit. I have over 10,000 gold with 100+ knights, 30 some cannons, 1 army in that one at 90 AD without having learned Military Tradition or Theory of Gravity or Magnetism yet.

Wasn't there too much swamp and jungle in your core anyway?

I'd argue no, and that potentially that might even make the map stronger, since if you have swamp and jungle, then the AIs have less swamp and jungle. Consequently, you can get more gpt earlier from the AIs which increases your conquering speed. Then again, my expansion did seem a bit slow, but NOT as slow as when I've tried this without a food bonus.
