Default Re: Anastasia (681-province map)

... aaand a question.

How does the game handle the #start listing? I've been going off of the assumption that it basically sets up all start provinces as a pool to randomly select from, and that it hopefully uses some sort of decent way of keeping players from starting in two start provinces simultaneously.

More specifically, if I go wild with #start designations, basically selecting every province on the map with 4 or more neighbors that doesn't have other problems (for example, as shown in the attached image), many of them will be very close together.

Can the game be counted on to be intelligent with this, or must I be more selective and narrow it down to locations that will not allow the game to jam players too close together?
