I had thought about that, doing something like a wider visible area for everyone. But it is something else that isn't natural so I didn't want to throw that on top too. Unless that sounds helpful to a lot of other players.
Keep in mind too that you have those 2 explorers so you'll be able to get a lot of that planning in after like 2-3 turns of exploration.

Ok I am going to join in on this. I think it will be fun to start from scratch with a completely new set of tools.
Take your time in getting it set up though LOL. My schedule frees up a bit in mid-April.

True. I just perhap think reduce starting scout direction bias *cough* pb27 *cough*. A small expanded view of the start area is always good I know we get the explorers but still.
Also are barbs on? Do barbs start with rifling too? Will we see barb cavalry?!

I thought Barbs didn't get 2-movers (unless city-built)?
*3-move Chariots in EitB notwithstanding....

No they aren't allowed certain units like chariots (because barbs owning chariots after people have the wheel would be chaos) or spears but they can get HAs.

So part of the thing with this game is I've already done a lot of setup, so we'd be able to start fairly quickly. Is it going to be a problem if we started like in a week? (very possible i think). And/or would it help to have a dedlurker for the first month or so? I think we still have a few interested there.

Barbs on, I'm not sure to what extent there will be wandering barbs, you'd have to test that out. I think they would make cities in empty land like normal though?

Thank god. Scooter had just convinced me to join, saved by the bell.
I've got some dirt on my shoulder, can you brush it off for me?
