A new large Erebus map for you all!

[CladInShadows]

Hi guys, after sitting here so often in awe of all the fine work that everyone keeps releasing, I've finally decided to give something a go myself. This is a large map using all 19 civs that I have made. I tried to make it fairly different from all the ones that have been uploaded before, and I've focuses more on making it a fun map rather than making sure that everything fits lore wise. I also tried to combine a few qualities of my favourite map scripts that I've been using, and in the end decided to use a bit of inspiration from the world map in one of my other favourite games

Anyway the first version attached along with a screenshot of the minimap. Resources are placed randomly, and at current so are specal features although I plan on giving them definite positions soon.

If anyone is willing to offer constructive feedback, remembering that this is my first map ever , then my two main current concerns are balancing civ starting positions, and also the number and location of gates between map areas.

Anyway I hope that anyone willing to give this a go enjoys themselves and has a great game!

I'll give it a try, I never used a premade map though only scripts. Where do I put the file at?

EDIT

Figured it out.

I'm really enjoying it so far, but I think I'd prefer for the resources and unique features to have fixed locations. That's a personal preference, though.

Only issue I've encountered was one start as the Kurioates I started without a settler because the spawn location for the settler was taken by a goblin fort. I saw it happen a few other starts to other civs, too.

I agree with not having random resources and unique features, tends to make the locations unbalanced.

[CarnivalBizarre]

Agree that fixed resources and unique places is a must, but the map looks great otherwise, only tried it once yet though...

I vote permanent features as well.
