        Starting map parameters are known to all players.  That should
prime a lot of expectations right there -- Archipelago versus Single Large
Continent versus Desert World, versus Earth Map, etc.
        The AI should understand geopolitics at least as far as "There are
an average of 150 map tiles available per player.  35% of those are land.
I only know about 38 tiles.  Explore."
