Popularity of the Faerun Map?

[NTJedi]

Personally I always prefer the x-large maps. Also according to Gandalf the x-large maps are the most popular downloads from his website... no opinions just facts. The larger the maps the more time players have to develop their empire and the larger the battles can be.
The starting locations of some players did provide a large advantage... but it's still a great map for the overall content. The best way the map can be improved is if the developers add a method/command where independents can be placed on patrolling. Then an army can be on the outside and inside of a castle.
