Thanks for the praise.

The big one is, all things considered, somewhat too big. The smaller one has some rather big design issues in some regions, and both of them need some toning down for some of the province guardians (the Earthmother in the Moonshaes is especially nasty).

It was only too big for Dom 2 because of the low unit limit and the scouting bug.
But remember Illwinter said the maximum number of provinces for Dom3 will be 1500 .
So this means that the unit limit is hopefully not an issue anymore neither .
So you could also make a 500 province Faerun map for Dom3 imho .
Iirc there are 20 Nations for Dom3, so 500:20 would be 25 provinces for each nation, exactly right for an epic MP game .

Already looking forward to your Dom3 Faerun Maps
I 100% agree. If the province limit is 1500 (ouch, thats extreme allright) then unit limit most definitely shouldn't be a problem anymore. Heck on 1500 province map you would reach limit just by placing indies on the map.

I think currently Large Faerun map will fall somewhere in the middle sized maps once Dom 3 is out.

Come to think of it, 1500 provinces is a dream come true for Gandalf who's notorious in his liking of HUGE maps.
I bet he will find a way to play with ALL nations on it too.
