OK, I know already I'm not going to win Map of the Week or anything like that. But I do know that the only way to seriously improve is to get constructive criticism on it. This map is my best to date; please give me some tips on improvement, and I'll work on my skills.
Description: During your travels through Arabia, your scouts report that a nearby region is ideal for settlement. Tired from travel, your people convince you to choose a settlement. But where? On the fertile but resource-barren riverbanks? Or in the desert by an oasis, where water allows for scant food -- and wildlife? Or will you settle on the highlands, where there truly is no food but an abundance of resources? Or will you be bold enough to settle on the sandy beach? And most importantly: Who else has the same idea?

Fun to play multiplayer. Because all guys on multiplayer are strong. But playing with computer opponenets. They will be week, very week. Map is unbalanced....
Balance: 3
.... that makes it hard. Too hard for computer guys. If you play multiplayer there isn't problems - all guys are economic masters. But sheriff or caliph are only computer lord with iron brains!
