What's still TBD? Map script and settings, player order, raging barbs?

Suggestion: does greener tectonics have a terra setting?

Map (I'd like something a bit lusher than the PB 71 map, can greener tectonics be tweaked at all?), play order (my main window is from 16:30-19:30 EDT (GMT -4) with a secondary window in the early morning),
Raging barbs is fine, Leader/Civ: pick from 3 random combinations each?, events: sure, doubled is fine, no war weariness, no active spy missions, NTT,

I'm sure I'm missing something but I'm still getting my blood caffeine levels up to normal.

Do you have a map roller? How much tweaking do you want? I.e, secure horse and copper only, or minor start tweaks?

Pure random, events quintupled, raging barbs gifted Artillery, no WW. Green tectonics is good, or a pangea-setting B&S.
If only you and me and dead people know hex, then only deaf people know hex.

I write RPG adventures, and blog about it, check it out.

You started off really well but I'm not so sure about the artillery.

I can adjust the parameters for Greener Tectonics if you'd like, but my memory is a little fuzzy since it's been a while since the last time I looked at it. IIRC, if you want it to be a bit more lush in terms of resources, you might have to do that manually.

On the one hand, I think all map scripts could do with some tightening up, but on the other it is probably the map generator itself which needs to be improved. In retrospect PB71 wasn't impossible but the land was that poor no one could build an effective tech base without mids but making it a bit greater might help with that?.

I'm fine with no active missions, raging barbs minus the arty, events out the wahoo, huts on etc.

I'll throw out a slightly unusual map script you might want to look at: tilted axis with snake contents can give some good random maps but probably works better at standard size. I'm fine with greener tectonics with or without changes, but what map settings do iou want?

Regarding leaders and civs I don't want a choice. If we do a "Pick from a list" I'm going to roll a dice. Not fussed what is actually chosen though.

The map I kinda just want to go with no map checking, let the pb server roll the map

Happy with anything for map

In favour of random of random for leaders, no choice. Let's see how viable that is

This captures what I'm looking for.
