Been around for a while, mostly picking up hints and ideas and not
posting too much.

Just had a question: I`m playing "conquest" and I recently made a map of
16 nations, 250x250 (huge) with lots of islands. I`ve been trying with
Zulu just to see if it works, and it does. And finally, the question:
Wich nation is the best to pick when you play a huge map like this,
where you need to go long distances to meet "your neighbours"
(exploration), you also need to negotiate over resources since no island
has all resources......

It sounds like you should be playing a seafaring civ.

My current game sounds like that. I'm playing as the Netherlands -
Agricultural/Seafaring. Also their UU doesn't come too early as I'm playing
at Sid level, and can't afford early wars.

Thanks for the tips. Seafaring it is.
