Re: Map making question
Basically one that doesnt trap anyone in a bad spot. For me I like to see one or two large continents (no small land masses large enough to start on but not large enough to continue expanding). And 2 or 3 large oceans (same with water, none large enough to start in but just barely and then you are stuck for awhile)
Other than that I like lots of choke points. Small pieces of land connecting continents, small water ways connecting oceans, but neither large enough for anyone to start at.
Variety is nice. Each terrain scattered in various places around the map. But no terrain in chunks big enough for someone to get stuck in it. Certain nations would do very well and others very badly if they landed in farmland surrouinded by farmland, or mountains surrounded by mountains, or swamp, etc. I prefer the terrain zones to be small enough that someone wont land in it and find all of their capital provinces to be the same thing.
