I believe that the Faerun map is too large - it also has fixed sites for the MA Nations (IIRC), which are not, from a strategic standpoint, balanced.

Finally it has oodles of fixed specials although I believe there is a version without them?

We can use Faerun if there is more than one vote in favor.

The rivers (and oasis symbols) have limited strategic significance - there are a number of sites which are only found in provinces with fresh water. The vast majority are water sites. So any province that has a river or oasis in it will be much more likely to have water sites.

That's the extent of it.

The other symbols on the map have been recoded to contain *many sites* - this includes the volcanos, crystals, balancing rocks, invisible giant and oasises.

And, finally, there are a number of start locations on the map (not fixed by nation #) which you might enjoy.
