Debut Maesltrom Diplomacy

Drogo... Drogo.. Where art thou..?

So everyone is taking regions rather than kingdoms, that's probably a better choice than what I did with the #1 pick. But I haven't played in over a year so I'm more interested in kingdoms than regions right now. I'm also trying to make one of the wizard kingdom successful in Maelstrom but we'll see. Fortifications can delay attacks for the weaker kingdoms in the early going but will they hold up after turn 10 as the military kingdoms get bigger and bigger...

Yes, I think it will be unorthodox to claim the #1 choice and take a kingdom, as that means you will have the last region with pick 24.  However, it seems a mage kingdom will be less dependent on a specific region as none are setup to benefit magic, specifically, but will matter significantly to military, seafaring and balanced kingdoms.  I'm also wondering if a Capital Region is not the best choice for a mage kingdom, as it has neither the nobles or the military to quickly gain a large region.  We will see: this is all still a new born.

I think if I had to pick a best region for a mage it may be Mythgar effectively giving them an extra p2 and being in the south for early development needs.   I also like the double sea regions that could allow extra gold by trade.
