    I don't really have a preferrance as of yet, but most of the time the game randomly chooses ones with hardly any water. As a matter of fact, I have only had one game with naval battles so far during my CTW game, and I lost all my ships. I still had many fishing vessels that the enemy didn't destroy though for some reason.

    I like my games more on the crowded side. It makes offence easier - my artillery will still be in my territory.
    I'm building a wagon! On some other part of the internets, obviously (but not that other site).

      Try the African water hole, AI do not build ships in that small lake, so you can have your nice little carrier party in it.

      I play mostly African water hole or East meet west. Having fun with navy warfare and carriers.

        Yeah I'm a great fan of Great Sahara, then Southwest Mesa then Mediterranean. The others are just if I want a change. Tried an Atlantic map and hmmmmmm forgot about a navy till I hmmmm got a rather nasty visit from the computer. Needless to say I was not in a healthy position.

            My favorite map is Secret Random.

            I typically choose the size appropriate to the # of players in game.

              hate maps with water... can't stand the navy... I think it has something to do with those auto-transports

              I himalayas (sp?) and Amazon Rainforest.

              I also made a bunch of home-made maps in the scenario editor. Mostly maps based around team play, with like a river in the middle and several choke points along the river from mountains and trees... Air Supperiority is really important since you can fly over the trees and mountains and stuff. One of my other favorites is a 4 player (2 vs 2) map I made that has a large area for you to grow in, then then a series of mazes in trees and a large opening in the middle of the map where the mazes meet up kinda.. its fun cause theres little places in the trees where you can hide units for ambushes and stuff and the AI does it fairly often.

                I hate naval battles. Its always random land map for me.... dont get me wrong, carriers are sweet, but the fireships just get me too angry, because they are so durn hard to use, and so durn hard to counter when AI uses them.... i just can't micro that well.

                  So far, I've only tried standard map size / Great Lakes (the default setting), but after my first games I changed the number of other nations from 3 to 5.
                  "As far as general advice on mod-making: Go slow as far as adding new things to the game until you have the basic game all smoothed out ... Make sure the things you change are really imbalances and not just something that doesn't fit with your particular style of play." - WesW

                    Naval maps rock. I play East Indies, British Isles, Atlantic Sea Power, really all of the sea maps. When Carriers get developed, they pretty much rule the seas and have numerous uses. I loved Carriers in CIV3 and I love them here in RoN too.
