This will be the development / feedback thread for the "The Great Old World" map for Old world, a map in where Europa, Africa and Asia (and a lot of Oceania) are fully playable on a single map. That means on this map can be fighted for the dominance of the Silk Road as well as travelled from the White Sea to Tasmania while someone is establishing the Roman Empire in its greatest extent (and beyond).
The design philosophy was that starting from the ancient world every land area is accessible as long as you don't need to travel too long in deep waters or the Bering Strait. I missed this kind of map for Old world, so I decided to create one on my own - and during the Christmas period finally got the chance to (almost) complete it.
The map includes: [see spoiler]
Here is a sneak preview of the map:
In the moment the map is already fully playable, but still on a Beta stage, in particular becase I didn't tested the gameplay balancing much. Therefore I'm looking here for someone who wants to play the Beta and give me some feedback before I will upload it as an Mod in the game itself. [Also any other feedback, like for the names of city sites and landmarks are also welcome!] And that's the map:
The Great Old World v09 Beta.xml
(just copy the map file in the maps folder, typically .../Users/Documents/My Games/Old World/Maps)
Finally I want to thanks to civfanactics Gedemon, Horniga and Genghis Kai, who (further) developed the world maps from Civ 4 to the Civ 6 Giant Earth map, which was an important inspiration base while creating this map.
