well now everyone gets 3 chances and instead of someone being in your bonus on turn 1, they can crowd you out of your bonus on turn 2

because now you're more likely to be next to many people

the game is inherently unfair because you can negatively affect other people's existence. that's the nature of maps based on geographical locations as opposed to more fantasy maps and synthetic maps like road to utopia

and bla sure i'll play

Maps like the standard Earth have distribution modes that ensure people can be spread evenly across the map and not clump together like we've done. On my Through Valleys and Over Hills map I added manual distribution modes balanced so that people could start in areas with similar environments in terms of bonus sizes, distances from each other etc. There really are lots of options to make the distributions a lot more fair than they've been in our games. I don't think the game being inherently competitive is a valid argument for using distribution modes that ended up putting many of us into groups and deadlocked a few people before the game even began. It can all be solved with changing distribution mode or making a custom one.

most maps i've played generally default to randomly generating anywhere? (unless you select warlords or cities)

maybe i don't pay attention but only recently have i encountered maps that have special automatic distributions to put people in spots, and they were team games where the result was absolutely horrendously unbalanced

i could make a custom warlords like the standard earth so it shows up first

Road to Utopia game set up

https://www.warlight.net/MultiPlayer?GameID=8039397

Edit: As always when making such games, the settings weren't entirely as intended, so I voted to end so we can restart. If so I'll reduce base income to 5 instead of 10 and increase luck from 25% to 50%.

Warlight exists. It is a game. It cannot be played without participation of all players. Not all players are participating. Issues arise because of this. Many people want the non-participating player to play. The non-participant refuses.

Road to Utopia 1 ended
https://www.warlight.net/MultiPlayer?GameID=8039601

I think I might've lost if the Fiah nation attacked on turn 8, but heading for my feudalism and abandoning defense doomed the project.

I think there were a bit too few reconnaisance cards and too many airlift cards, and maybe a bit too many abandon cards.
A bit sad to see everybody else got slowed down a lot more from fighting.
Thanks for the game.

wait we should be thanking you for the game since you made it
