If the choice is to go with a smaller map, I'v vote for vrb's (and retricting sea nations) over silent seas for the balanced locations/geography.

Re: Mega-Dueling Tournament - Rules, Settings, Check List, and Sign Ups
 

My vote is for Silent Seas. It's the most balanced land/sea map of the desired size, and, it's a very good map.

Re: Mega-Dueling Tournament - Rules, Settings, Check List, and Sign Ups
 

I too would like to vote for Silent Seas (the unwrapped one; because the wrapped map gives a too huge boost to nations who can sail).

Re: Mega-Dueling Tournament - Rules, Settings, Check List, and Sign Ups
 

Silent seas is ok but I think an all land map would be better suited for the tourney.

Re: Mega-Dueling Tournament - Rules, Settings, Check List, and Sign Ups
 

If we're using Silent Seas, can i request fixed starts? Because random starts can lead to *really* close placements on that map.

Re: Mega-Dueling Tournament - Rules, Settings, Check List, and Sign Ups
 

second that.

Re: Mega-Dueling Tournament - Rules, Settings, Check List, and Sign Ups
 

Pashas Dogfight map is nice I think.

Re: Mega-Dueling Tournament - Rules, Settings, Check List, and Sign Ups
 

I'd rather have an all land map of about 40 provinces.

I'm curious why you feel that was as I feel the opposite. No water reduces strategic options and removes one of the native advantages of several nations skewing the power even more towards those nations with first rate straightforward ground troop - Neifelheim, Mictlan, Lanka, etc. Having water is going to give a bit to Agartha, Atlantis, Patala, Marignon, etc. who are generally much lower on the power curve, and with the ratios its not like you could win without also winning on the land. If the matchup is between two nations poorly suited to water it'll probably mostly be ignored, though any nation could consider the water when designing their pretender. It just seems like the presence of water would lend itself to richer strategies.
