[comp.sys.amiga] Rules for Populous

I have a copy of Populous and there are some things which the rules don't
make clear.  I was hoping someone out there could clear these up for me:
1. What are the differences between the four landscapes?
2. When in conquest the computer says his rating is {poor, good, excellent}
   what does that correspond to in custom mode and what does it affect?
3. What exactly do the first three options of the balance menu (modify
   land, attack leader, attack towns) allow you do (or not do)?
4. What is the scoring based on (is it # of battles won, relative
   populations, # of castles/towns, etc.)?
If anyone knows the answers to these I'd appreciate knowing.  Thanks!
