We never planned on winning the game, just being mercenaries and beating things up so our starting position is fine, we have already implemented a plan.

hell that is better than our start. We started on a 1 square island that is tundra.

but seriously that would be a bad start. I'd hate to restart. We can't restart when every little thing goes wrong.

But what did our world settings end up being? Is there any way to check that? I know some of them were random, I'm curious what they ended up being. That could be of strategic value.

Yeah, an OCC game with no resources, luxuries, bonus tiles and a way to obtain them.

Something is fishy() about that picture, I dont believe it.

No restart needed since this is obviously a gag!
In other words, it is not real!
They have actually another Starting location!
They are pulling our legs!
It's funny, it's for a laugh a hahah
understand?

We are in a big trouble and you guys are making jokes... I like sushi, but not forever!
BTW, instead of sushi you can read sashimi. We don't have rice, after all... Where can we put a farm?
Don't be so cruel, guys... this could be happened with you!
However, we are honorable players, no need to restart...

If this is true, it will be fascinating to see you play with this starting location.

Just a bit of fun, but actually adding your worker to the city was not the best decision. If you would have waited until a settler had been ready to build, add the worker then, you would at least have a second settler. Now, that city can't even grow to size 3, so not only you don't have a good starting pos, but you neither can build a second city... unless you build a worker first.

Other then that, I still think this is a fun thread to read

all anyone could do with this start is just press the 'end turn' button over and over again until sombody with marines came and killed them.

Being Honorable is fine and dandy...but getting stuck with a start position like that (if it is real) is definate grounds for requesting a restart....but since GoW are not requesting a restart, we can assume that the one-tile starting position is a gag.

The Vox Controli starting position. It's not as good as the GoW one, but I think we will manage to survive.

I do agree our starting position can be better.

We don't even have any flood plains (see above picture)

I think we'd be better off on that desert island.
