Why 4th age is not for me...

I've got a shocking memory but I do recall from the 1 game of 4A I
played yonks ago that you DO get the same messages in 4A on your
startup as you do in 1650/2950 i.e. if its on your map, you get a
report like:

Reports suggest the presence of holdings/forces of the Dim Sims at
3624.

cheers,
Stags.

But

there's an MT 6 hexes away, and you don't know who owns it, or

whether

it's fried or foe?

RD: Laurence, FA is no different in these three respects from 1650

and 2950.

I still find it strange that a pop centre can appear on your map

(speaking as a 1650 player) and you don't automatically know who owns
it. I thought this area was where your populace wanders about
frequently. I think you should be told whenever another nation
creates or upgrades a pop centre on your map - not just at the start
of game.

Don't forget the MoveTurn map order. Helps a lot - doesn't give the owner
though.
