    Terra maps / Monarch

    I'm playing large Terra maps on monarch level. Not that I'm really good at it, but Prince level just seems too easy and I like challenge. So the main problem that happens to me is I immediately get boxed in. If I develop normally, I would be lucky to get 4-5 cities in. And If I focus on...

    isolated start

    I've searched the forum and read several threads but after all I thought that having my own wouldn't be so bad. So yesterday I played Tokugawa/continents/monarch. Obviously lost. Now I want to give it another try. So at my disposal was a big continent with pretty good terrain. One half of...
