Just have a little spare time on a Saturday afternoon, and was trying to think of something for people to discuss here. "A new map" obviously wasn't the most appropriate answer, considering the fact that we're already waiting on one. However, it was the first thing that came to mind. So, how's about:
A Central Asia/Himalayas map
It would be a zoomed in map with hard edges. I've attached a sample map below to show the intended geography.
Player nations would include:
Russia
China
Kazakhstan
Pakistan
Afghanistan
Turkmenistan
Uzbekistan
Kyrgyzstan
Tajikistan
Iran
India
Nepal
Bhutan
Free Tibet
Uyghur
Mongolia
Kashmir
and a Taliban State (occupying part of real world Afghanistan)
Why create such a map? It puts the spotlight on some independent nations in a part of the world to which we tend to be a little less attentive. It also offers an opportunity for players to play without navies and in an environment in which the mountain terrain should be a significant consideration.
