[net.games.emp] the river grid

In our 128x128 world, the Deity recently did

	des -64:63,-43 .
	des -64:63,-12:-11 .
	des -64:63,21:22 .
	des -64:63,51 .
	des -31:-30,-64:63 .
	des 31:32,-64:63 .

producing a grid of waterways. We think this will produce interesting
results in trade, warfare, travel, etc. Because of the bug in empcre,
our world was one vast plain with a couple large lakes and very few
rivers of any length.

Which version are you running?  It sounds like the one we had
at the beginning of the year (same kind of land)  However, we
are now running a newer one, and it seems that everyone has
at least one side of their country on water.  Much more interesting.

We're running a pretty recent version, June. All we have are two lakes
with a few mountains surrounding them.

We'd like to have more lakes/rivers/sea if possible.
