Just to be nitpicky: The original poster is correct. Horizontal-only wraparound gives a cylinder

I too would prefer more cylindrical maps. Those donuts are not very intuitive IMO.
Well, one day, once I become an expert Dom2 player (and what does that usually take people - a year or two? ) I may go into the map creation business. It'd be nice to make a few cylindrical maps complete with bigger provinces on top and bottom to approximate a sphere.

It'd also be nice to have more pretty maps that are also good for MP. The Faerun map is gorgeous, and I love playing SP on it, but so much of what makes it great for SP makes it bad for MP. Maybe Edi's new map resolves that conflict, but I suspect that's a difficult issue to work out. Karan is nice to look at, but the lack of any wraparound can work out to screw your starting position.
