Playing on a huge map I have found a couple of issues. First it is very difficult to actually connect my trade rout to any of my neighbors. They are just to far away. This mean I do not have a good source of income till I have a 2-3 decent sized cities connect with roads. I hit the 0 gold very quickly with just a few building and units. Then I cannot do much of anything.
Second my neighbors almost never seem to go to war with one another, or me. before my neighbors were always DOWing each other, and me. This would provide me an opportunity to take a couple of cities to expand my empire that way. Now we just sit there for turn after turn doing nothing. Epic game speed is usally boring when you are at peace and not moving units around, now it is really boring.
Anyone else having these isures? Do smaller maps invose more conflict, and promote more lucrative trades in the early game?
