Default Re: Gandalf\'s Random Circus

WOW did no one ever tell me that my "small" maps and my "medium" maps were the same size? I didnt ever bother to look myself since I prefer huge maps.

OK the large maps try to get to 450 land and 50 sea provinces. It usually fails ending up with the 50 sea and around 375-380 land. The mediums were 140 land and 20 sea (basically 10 provinces each with a little over). The small maps NOW are 70 land and 10 sea. This basically gives 5 provinces each with alittle over if all the races are playing. I will take a look at them but that seems really tiny to me.

The problem is that Im not the right person to judge. I dont like the little maps. Keep in mind that these are for the random-luck games. Other people are manually creating the balanced chess-board style maps.

How does that seem to you people? So how does 500, 160, 80 provinces sound as map sizes?
