Is there a veriant that adds more of a fog of war exploration feel to the game? Maybe starting with times face down and filling them over when you move into an area then placing nutral units and whatever elce down.
Here's the problems you'll run I to trong this variant:
1) legal map setup will be a crapshoot. You might put water and/or mountains bordering each other, or completely cut off a home realm tile with water/mountains.
2) if you can't explore until you move onto the tile, you might move onto it to realize you made an illegal move over a mountain.
3) if you explore when next to the tile... The tiles are fairly big, and everyone will probably be next to all the tiles within one or two turns anyway.
There may be others, those are the ones I could think off off the top of my head.
