The following changes would have been made to the Eurogame edition (1999) if the board and cards hadn't already been printed, but you might want to incorporate some of thm in your own game:

Adjustments to the Map:

• London connects with Chester, allowing London to have one more Domination Marker on Turn #1
• Novgorod absorbs Smolensk. Thus, Hamburg is a bit closer to Area V if it buys both Galley 2 and Caravan on Turn #1
• The Western Mediterranean/Eastern Mediterranean/Libya/Barca sea border is flipped so that Genoa can buy The Heavens on Turn #2 and reach Alexandria (ahead of Barcelona and Venice)
• An extra French wine province (Loire) between Paris and Bordeaux would help Paris. This would mean a change to the Wine cards as well as adding a commodity deed

Card Changes:

• Apart from the above change to the Wine cards, it would help Hamburg if one Timber was switched from Epoch II to Epoch I
