Zeldor - I've been going back and forth on whether I have time to join a new game (I'm a noob, currently just into my first pbem). I'm not sure if I want to join.. put me in the maybe column if that exists?
As far as maps, may I not so humbly suggest one that I made a while back? You can check it out at:

It is balanced for MP games more than any map I have played, has pretedermined nonstart locations to insure equal surrounding provinces, and avoids putting players in corners and edges which is also considered imbalanced. Also, its pretty and has a few fun quirks.
