Trying to avoid too many option ms because then you have like only 2-3 people voting for winning vote.
If by south east Asia you mean the island nations, then prolly not an option. You can always conquer them later
Your region is gonna be pretty broad and, in larger regions (South Asia, Middle East etc) you won't onow exactly where you are at without exploring. Plus...geography might change a bit

We also dealt with Hordes or similar landbound threats for a very large fraction of PoC. So much so that we got traits exemplifying that we hated steppe hordes.

There is a reason the game information encourages critical thinking. Voting purely on preference can be detrimental to your survival.

Starvation, and environmental hazards are worse than steppe hordes players need to roll nat100s to have a chance to repel?
Antartica was never going to possibily be able to be a viable choice beyond turn 1, was it?

If I may ask: Is Antartica a trap option in the sense of word meaning 'basically unwinnable' under the physical rules used within this quest?

It depends on what you consider winnable
If developing a thriving civilization lasting centuries is your goal...the initial survival checks to develop that way would be quite high. Of course...you could always develop in less natural ways...

The place has penguins (food, maybe, I'm not sure they're safe to eat), but a way to make fire puts things into really hard on an Antartica civ. Eskimoes got a civ, but they were linked to North America, and could pick up rocks, or hunt fire.

I'll be kind
Turn 1 Antarctica
50% chance you flat out die.
30% chance you Middle around until turn 2 (which would have increased survival odds. 35% chance you die)
20% chance the extreme conditions cause you to develop in such a way the cold is not a problem.

That's interesting. So directed/nonstandard/essentially magical evolution is viable then?It depends on what you consider winnable

That makes things very interesting
Is it magic based? Genetic mutation? Aliens? There are so many directions the QM could take this
I'm glad he's adding an element of fantasy/mystery to the Quest.
