Or you could, ya know, not do anything with the pigs. Let them roam free.

[pindicator]

It's clearly a question from the map team. Do you prefer bacon or seafood?

Why choose?

[GermanJoey]

Iam curious, was this little bit of cruelty intentional?




There is no way to avoid orphaning the fish without being forced the settle on the pig...

Hah! No, that one's a slipup! Other than a few specific things (the deer is one ) we had the honest intention of making The New World as nice as possible, within reason, for a bunch of reasons: e.g. as a reward for the players willing to take a risk to go for it, to help get such late settlements up to empire-relevance as fast as possible... to make your fledling developments very attractive invasion targets...

Random shots and a little bit of commentary

Shot of core



AT land



Northern colonies



Southern Colony - this island is huge!



Like, this isn't an "astro island", this is a full blown New World. I doubt I can get all of it, but I want to get a lot.


Finally

You done messed up, this deer is accessible!

[Miguelito]

Why is that fp nw of itanagi unimproved?

[dtay]

Because the map is strange (/messed up?) and that tile is not actually riverside, so it is just a fp/desert that no improvements can be built on.

[BRickAstley]

Yeah I found that mistake after the game already started while playing an SP game from your position. Sorry!

[dtay]

You made the opposite mistake over here




Desert riverside, no FP

I have no allegiance to the warriors but...

Steph Curry is a broken character

That is all.

I'm a Trailblazers fan, but Curry is just mesmerizing to watch
