OK, time to pick a map! Key criteria i think are:
* 12-15 provinces per player
* Has enough water mass for R'lyeh, but not too much
At this stage, I am leaning towards Land of Legends, even though it is not a wrap around, because it has the right number of provinces per player (~12-15) and a decent sized pond for R'lyeh to play in. Plus I played my first ever game of Dom3 on this map at the gaming den, as Hinnom (I still remember Korwin rampaging through the middle of my country making my life hell
- and Frank Trollman rage quitting halfway through - good times), so it has some sentimental value.
I am opend to suggestions, though - up until we actually start I can still back out and tweak the map, so let's talk about it.
To help the discussion, other options I looked at (we are not limited to these) were:
* land of loemendor (142 + 15) - good mix, not wrap around
* realm of rusty nails v4 (143 + 12) - wrap around, but a bit hard on the * water player as they get a very small pond.
* land of legends (135 + 18) - again, good mix but not wrap around
* urraparand (145 + 35) - wraps nicely, perhaps a few too many oceans for r'yleh
* Shadowshore (120 + 13) - while not wrap around, there is no-where to hide on this map, so it was my second choice.
