What is your most used map type in normal BTS games?

[mnstot]

Pretty simple, just curious to see how others play.

 

[Rex rgis of Ter]

I like Big aand Small, it has a nice balance between naval and land battles.

 

[bonafide11]

Too many options, should've just selected like 5 or so...

 

[shaunthegreat]

I usually go for terra. It usually allows me to get a late land grab.

 

[Ormur]

Same here. Once I managed to win a domination victory with only two wars.

 

[Imperator1984]

I usually only play earth maps, very rarely do I play other maps.

My fav maps would have to be Rhyes and Fall 600 A.D and Earth 1000 A.D.

In the next expansion i'd like to see a couple new European oriented scenarios.

Perhaps an Ottoman invasion of Europe scenario and a Teutonic Knights/Crusades scenario.

Other -- Refar's Random Script Chooser. It randomly picks Archipelago, Fractal, Pangaea, Hemispheres, Big&Small, Medium&Small, or Terra.

Tectonics is good, too. Generates a completely random map but uses a sort of simulated tectonic plate action to build the continents.

 

[Munch]

Hemispheres and Big_and_Small are great, interesting map types; I've regressed to Pangaea though (natural coastline, naturally) because I know I won't need a last ditch transport-building effort to take out Willem's cultural powerhouse from across the sea. That and there's more chance of war in Pangaea; in other map types threats from AI on another landmass are pretty idle. Also, tactical nukes are far more useful in Pangaea! So yeah, that's it really.

Hemispereres is my favorite map type for BTS. I usually go for arid condition and high sea level, what somewhat slow down the uncontrolled grow of empires and enable extended use of bonus resources.
