Definitely! Hitting 8 is a must on this map.

yes, but you're Tir Na n'Og - those VP sites will melt before the awesomeness of your bare-chested warriors!1

that completely sucks though, and likely means you can't have much hope. I once started one game in a province w/ only one land neighbour, a wasteland, which in turn only had one other neighbour, which itself was equidistant to 3 other capitals (it was a very crowded game). So I was pretty much guaranteed one wasteland, with a good chance at getting one plains

the best thing to do is only have a set number of approximately balanced allowed starts equaling the number of players; but that's a lot of manual work by the organizer.

Those Tir na n'Og warriors are so awesome that their cuirasses grow out of them?
Hot.

By the way, I couldn't help but notice Draggar's girlfriend's influence on his goddess name...

The demon lords of Lanka offer power to those nations who will be the victims of the lucky and vicious through no fault of their own. Our reach will rapidly extend to the far corners of the world, and we offer protection to those nations who feel they need it. The unmatched might of the underworld stands ready to defend your homes, a wise nation would do well to discretely solicit our friendship before your neighbor does. Let those upon who fate has not smiled learn that only suckers must play the hand they are dealt.

Jeeze. Every time you restart this game Baalz my starting position continuously gets worse. Well no matter, I'll squash whatever legions come my way regardless.

Hidden benefit of a terrible start position : Your territories are even less appealing to conquer!

My starting position is so bad I had to look at it in the map editor: It does have the 'No start' flag set!

So stop complaining, let us get going.
