    What is these talk of "Unholy Non-Roman In-Empire" trying to have mounted camel legions? We know camels will never be able to survive the cold climate of Europe. Camels' habitat are Africa, and that's where they should stay.

    Now where's my camel hunter soldiers?

    First, I need a new map.

    Second it is true that you start with 3 (three) cities.Level 2

    The amount of gold will be 15000.
    No population.
    No armies.

    These people will bow to us once we show them our gold
    You mean 100000 gold?Hmm...

    Well, the map is done.
    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 


    Before we start, however, I think we need to discuss if we wish to implement any changes to the rules suggested by Kraellin last round (maybe you should PM him to see if he wants to join);
    Castles - must one assault them before attacking towns nearby?
    Boats - Do players have to buy transport for troops across water, or maintain separate navies?
    Trade - should location affect trade? I think it should, and I think I might be able to make an excel spreadsheet that could calculate taxes for cities depending on who they traded with, whether or not they're a port city, etc.

    City Density - this is important. We could make varying levels of density in the map, ranging from very low (desert) to low (steppes) to middling (most of Europe) to high (regions with rich farmland).

    Untravelable regions - the alps and certain deserts, for example.

    I suggest that we need transport ships and 'war boats'

    No, unless you dont want to have problems with enemy reinforcements
    Trade - should location affect trade? I think it should, and I think I might be able to make an excel spreadsheet that could calculate taxes for cities depending on who they traded with, whether or not they're a port city, etc
    Im not sure on how to do this

    Yes.I can make an research and I can make a new map with the climate.However, I suggest that we need an spreadsheet to see whats included and whats not.

    I will Pm Kraelin.

    We can use the current map for climate/density purposes, it just would require a bit of coloring.
    I suggest that we need transport ships and 'war boats'
    For simplicity's sake, I suggest just one type, built in port cities with a certain level of development.

    Im not sure on how to do this
    Neither am I, but I think I might be able to get something to work.

    WOW. That's a lot of steppes, and they're ALL MINE! Seriously, though. Could we get SOMEONE else out east. If not, I could turn this into a laugher with all the unguarded territory out there.

    EDIT: Is there a way my capital could be on the northeast corner of the Caspian?

    Well, I'm not so sure about the Soviets, I think Russia would be more time period appropriate. Thanks, though. I've finally got some competition for the east! I'm not very fond of games being too easy.
