May I suggest a slower research speed?

[Patolixo]

Great, we have 12 players now, which means we are closed to new recruits and are officially setting up the game! Hooray!

P3D, maybe we can use a slower speed, but what would be the advantages of that?

As for the map, we will be using Urraparrrand with Harbors, as per P3D's suggestion: http://dom3.servegame.com/wiki/Urraparrand_with_harbors

We will also use 150% money because of the map.

good stuff.

Wouldn't mind normal research myself. but if you want it slow we could try that. never have...

I've got a pretender waiting for this game to pop up on llamaserver...

[P3D]

Bit crowded and there are a lot of crap provinces - interesting game.

[13lackGu4rd]

I strongly suggest normal research, anything else will just be too confusing for new players. not to mention that most games are played with normal research, only a handful few use hard or even very hard research. also, what's the verdict on vanilla vs CBM(with or without EDM)?

[nerozero]

I haven't tried the newest version of CBM, and it seems a bit drastic. But CBM does seem to be the most commonly used around here, not that it matters that much too me. Of course, Jomon gains a lot from CBM, so I guess I'm biased
