Hmm... may be brutal for land nations. Water ones have sweet spot. There was not more balanced map? Wraparound? People in corners will have nice game.

Yes, problably not optimal. Im open to suggestions. The maps Cicero proposed are too big i think. Better a map with water connected. If its wrapped, the better. 15 or a bit more provinces per player.

We can change the map while uploading pretenders. Just we cant once we start the game.

My initial readtion was that it was brutal for some players, especially if they get a spot right next to a water player. I don't know if all the land spots are defined, but there is one with only a 1 province gap between. I was immediately fighting over that province. I don't mean its a no go, and the size is destined to produce excitement, if some early rush deaths as well.

What about Orania? Wraparound and enough space.

[Zeldor]

It contains some special provs with uber guys or great recruitables that throw the balance totally off. It'd be cool without those sites or if they were evenly distributed.

[BigDaddy]

nvm, I was thinking Alexander.

[Torin]

yes, 23 provinces per land player is not ubber big. Only a bit slower start.
not all that bad.
im ok with that one now i think of.

[BigDaddy]

If we go with one of the maps that has a lot of impassible divisions, then the wraparound and corners wouldn't be as important. Like the Cradle of Dominions (199-22) or Glory of the God (multiplayer) (227-47). Both are larger than 15 provinces/nation, and the first has a significant shortage of water. GotG is 20 provinces/nation.

Maybe Glory of the Gods (multiplayer)?

[Torin]

nice looking map GoG. Though the 2 seas are separated.

[BigDaddy]

I'm not really sure that would matter. One is 13 provinces and the other 24. The 13 providence one has the nicer places to put into land. Maybe having 24 in your ocean would be that great? Maybe you'd just assume have 13 to yourself. Or maybe just connect 179 and 91?
