Nobody puts Baby in the Corner

February 17, 2003 2:34 AM from

The game looks great, but has anyone else noticed that the starting position favors the corners and sides? It seems like almost 80% of my starting positions were up against the border of the map. On a gigantic map, that can make late game movements to the other side of the board take FOREVER. I'm not looking for anything to change, I was just wondering if this is a set thing, or if it just happened to work out that way for me.

I'd say 80% of my games have me start in corners or the bottom 1-2 sectors of the map.

About 75% of the time, my starting position is in the middle of the map. I wish it would change. lol

But it's all good.

Do you guys know you can press alt-n (or something n) and the map will respawn without restarting? You can do this as many times as you like until you are happy.
