.: New 1v1 Map :. "Tangled Isthmus"

About 50% "water" and 50% land.
1.7m per Mex
Good Wind
8x6 North vs. South

Players will be wise to take advantage of the water, as there is actually more metal there than on land. And nearly every landmass is reachable by a Destroyer's guns.

Wow! I really like it quanto. Would you consider doing a 24 x 24 for evolution?

Good to see you still have that climate, Quanto.

oh shit, ur right :X

Well some minor tweeks will be coming soon.

I've also been thinking of yet another map...

What do you guys think?
Greenworld?
Desert?
Moooooon?
Something else altogether?

I already have the height map planned out, i just want to be sure i'm not too repetitive with my climates.

how about aztec/inca style semi-jungle? Raised, man-made paths and lush jungle and grass.

I say desert.
We dont really have nice desert maps.
If you can make a good desert texture for it than i say,a desert map.
Another option that might be nice is a red world.
Its very tough to make a red map to look good imo but if you can pull it off... can be very nice.
some nice images to inspire you:

this one is similair to xanthea terra,for your consideration.

maybe a texture liek this one mixed with black shades.

can also do a dark grey texture with bright white spots or stripes or cuts.
or something like this :

ill just link to this one since its very big:

While I like Gota's idea. This one sounds like a lot of fun, and actually matches my Heightmap very well. I think I'll take you up on it! :D

w00t. I have been sitting on that idea for a map in that style for ages. Now someone is going to do it!

Can you add some Geos to the map? It's pretty interesting for Fibre but the lack of Geos means no superchargers or other points of interest.
