4-1 also has the rice in the outer ring, so they lose tempo there too. I would change both of those.

This is supposed to be natural map without mirrored starts. I feel I've already done too much mirroring with these starts. Worker coming 1T sooner or later won't decide the winner. Nevertheless I don't see this as a big issue to fix either so I guess I'm better of fixing it then.

Unless you want to suffer through another Krill rant I'd also suggest fixing it  .

Well at least 4H didn't waste their first pick on China. That would have been terrible.

Lewwyn is still clinging to his wrong "worker starts are faster than work boat starts because the worker keeps contributing worker turns afterwards" logic.

Little surprised no one picked vikings, dutch or portugal, all of whom add large advantages on a water map. Or is the tech pace fast enough the the carack really doesn't offer any advantage?

Why do you think this is a water map?

Well, the one start. But I guess it's lakes - they said, explicitly, the PB6 map was good, and that had a lot of naval stuff...

Not sure how serious Ichabod is, but I think giving anyone black is a terrible idea. Barbs may be part of the map and we don't want to give players the wrong idea.
