Nah don't worry about that, was just a suggestion to get things going sooner. To me the fun really starts when you can make trade, sanctions, form alliances, espionage, borders etc. Seemed like we were never going to get to that stage in that game. :(I just realised that Tok was looking for more than one starting city.
I'd like to start a new game anyway, so sign me up. Not sure who I'd like to be, but sure stick me down for the Japs again for the time being.
