Discussion on what makes levels easier

Does NTB really make it easier? Often I catch up with 2-fers on more challenging games.

Selecting opponents makes it easier. Also, regenerating the map until you get good starting locations makes it easier as well, so a struggling Emperor player should try and get a great start on Emperor first then gradually work their way down to average and poor starts.
