This map is made after my friends that I play LAN with didn't want to play with me anymore. The reason for this is because after playing Loki for
a good while, you get rather good at rushing, so my friends said that "Arbitration" was too favoured agaisnt Norse players and rufused to play that map.
So this is a map that made it easier for everyone to get up into the classical very fast and is not so favoured to Norse.

This map has the following;
~ Normal start (Town Center, villagers).
~ Extra buildings, 4 houses and a temple provided at start. 
~ More wood than "Arbitration" and "Arbitration-Advance"
~ No water
~ MUCH more cliffs than "Arbitration" and "Arbitration-Advance"


If you are playing Primary Start Cliffs, as well all the stuff from Primary Start, you will have:
~ Trackable mountains (if the mountains are big enough they will have small trackable routes throughout them).

There are three known "Bugs", only one of which is relatively bad.

~ The first one is the chance to generate with no native settlements (unoccupied/gaia settlements).

~ The second one is that sometimes there is an overlapping in the middle with mountains. I could easily stop this from happening, but I 
  like better the way it is.
  
~ Sometimes the temples or houses spawn right next to the starting gold mine, making only 3 sides of the gold mine available.
