Is there a way to play on a map larger than Huge?
 
Go to the editor and change the world size for hugh to something larger than 160 x 160.

I changed it to 252 x 252, you can go larger, but I just wanted to bump the number of Civs in the game up to 31 and this was the right size to enable that without changing any of the other parameters like distance between Civs.

Thanks for the help.
 
Keep in mind that the larger the map, the longer your turn times are going to be, especially if you lots of civs. I'm playing a 256 x 256 map with 16 civs, and I'm generally waiting 5-10 minutes a turn. And that's only up to the Middle Ages! I'm guessing it will be more like 20 minutes by the time I get to the last part of the game.

Also, there's a limit of 512 cities that can be in the game, so if you make the map to large, you won't be able to fill it up. I find 256 x 256 with no cities allowed on Deserts or Tundra about right.
