Seems that balancing the Lands of Legends for 8 LA nations is quite hard - if you want to have roughly even spacing, No of neighbours over 3 and the access to the limited harbors. In addition, Mictlan and Atlantis will have a definitive advantage for the island provinces as they can reach it much more easily.
In order to allow people to plan accordingly I've decided on the Ethereal Squirrels map. Take a look athe thumbnail at:

I would keep these starts but move 73 one tick east to 74. This way everyone should have a mimimum of 3 provinces between eachother. I don't think you can get 4 prov spread for everyone when it's this crowded.
Not at home atm but I'll set up the game tomorrow with the updated map. Try to have your pretender ready soon!
