Just counted stuff according to what you wrote:
Quote:Terrain-wise I aim for the starts to have:- 9 river-side tiles, of which 5 are flat grasslands, 3 hills and the bananaforest.
- 6 forests, atleast one of which is a plainshill
- 6 hills, with atleast one each of plains and grass that isn't forested, including the pigs.
Start A: Correct
Start B: - 1 river-side hill tile less (river does not empty into the lake)
Start C: - 1 river-side too much (the pig)
- 1 hill tile less
Start D: Correct
Start E: - 1 forest missing
- 1 hill missing
Start F: Correct
Start G: Correct
Start H:
Start I: Correct

Thanks Charriu! It's easy to get lost in the details here.

Will remove the pig-adjacent river and add another hill in the south.

Will add a forest in the south and hill in the north.

Will add an inner-ring forest.
I hope to get the starts to the players by friday evening, any and all feedback is very welcome.

Start F has 4 + 4 food instead of 5 + 4, I think.
And start G has 4/2 + 4/0 instead of 5/1 + 4/0.

I was thinking of setting it to standard, as is usual for RB maps, although a case could be made for large.

Overview shot of very early layout:
I've yet to tone down the jungle and tundra areas, and I'll probably add in some more water and a few islands.

It wraps both ways right?
I'm noticing the differing numbers of players om each sea. Four players have their Capitol on the NE sea, their is only one on the SE sea and two on the two others. I would suggest you connect green to the SE sea and purple instead of the NE sea.

Yes, it's toroidal wrap, and the lakes are the next on my list to work on.
