Don't the Babylonian , Arabian, and Turkish Spawn areas overlap in vanilla RFC too? Same with the Aztecs and Mayas and Germans and Dutch.
No, actually they do not. The "Normal Areas" overlap, but the cores do not. Rhye had taken spacial care of that. They border each other, but do not overlap.
Doesn't Sur flip to both the Arabs and the Turks?
But I thought respawn areas are different than core areas? So you could limit Byzantium's respawn to Greece only and problem is solved.
The direct link on that page addresses the wrong file. It should be Alpha 10, not 9c.
I have been playing this mod for a while now, I have completed the UHV for all civs except Sweden on Monarch, and have completed Venice and Bulgaria on Emperor. Not sure if this has been done, but the Venetian win was suitably difficult, and seemed well-balanced on emperor. The Bulgarian win seemed too easy, however, I captured Constantinople very quickly, noticing there were no tagmata there to defend, just 2 archers, which fell pretty easily under the weight of my starting cavalry. Is this intended, or did I just get lucky?
