Cool. I like South America.

Also, is this the place to suggest a change in an existing map? I would like to see the classic map a little lighter - its too dark.

If you look, many of your ideas you have suggested are already maps or they are currently in development.

I am working on a map idea, but in order to make it work I need to know if there is a way to code a special rule set in that I need.

If a player controls a certain set of territories, all other players will have their armies reduced by 2. Can that be done?

The Three kingdoms era of China I think would make a pretty good map.

As known by some, I once made a map of Flanders (Belgium) but told I didn't had the skill to end it good.
I still don't have the skill but want at least have 1 map on here that was mine idea.

I know I can work further on it, adding names and continents but are asking if someone would help me to the end?

I will only complete it as far as I can if someone offers to finish it.

There was a Roman Empire map in development - http://www.conquerclub.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=666 - but I think it died because there was so much overlap with the Europe map.
