Re: Seeking map or need advice on making it
There is no real good "average number of players". It would be simpler to talk in provinces per player. Its a lesson I learned in trying to get feedback from players about what maps sizes they wanted.
If a map will support every nation gaining only 5 provinces before having no choice but to go to war, then you are looking at 75 land and 10 water provinces. See where this is going? Saying a map will support 6 players doesnt mean much unless you add whether this means you idea of support is 5, 10, 25 provinces each before forcing a war.
As to terrains, Im kindof bugged if the terrain is grouped so "logically" that that there are large rambling areas of forest, desert, swamp, mountain. OK visually that makes sense but it creates maps where one persons start is surrounded by desert provinces and another surrounded by farmland. I would rather see smaller scatterings so that everyone is next to a few different types of terrain.
