Or at least other options!
Map editor should be good, I'll play with it tonight, one fo the funner games was where me and Chew had to battle it out for a 2 tile-wide passage between water. Well, he didn't put up that much of a fight...
Food is funky, T1 you get none if you are player 1, but then you do have the advantage of going first. The seeming randomness to being able to create/build is a bigger issue for me. Plus maybe some indication of upkeep on food, I'm not sure why units starve sometimes.
It is a fun game though, I feel a tourney coming on...
