Why does London start with 6 neutrals when every other territort starts with 3?

You should probably post this in the Map Thread. Anyway, it's for gameplay reasons. And it's just the capitals that start neu, by the way.

I understand all that but saying "for reasons of gameplay" still doesn't explain why London starts with 6

Then you don't, since that is the reason.

Looking at the legend, it seems that London is key to 3 or 4 bonuses. By making it harder to capture London initially it makes all of the bonuses harder. It is similar to why some of the resources in AOR 2 start with 5 and others start with 2.

I can help with that-
England have only 3 territory and worth 2(if you take cypruys then worth 3 for 4 territory),these is very big bonuses,and that why london worth 6 neutrals(almost forget london give you +1 autodeploy)
These mean that England with cyprus give +4 for 4 territory,and that why is london have 6 neutrals,because will be much easy to someon get bonuses ,expecialy if you have great drop on begining of game.
