Some possibilities include naming boats after certain class of sailboat from long island.
The Seaford Skiff, The narrasketuck and other more common like the Hobie Cat, Lido, Flying Dutchman, and Sunfish?

I would like to hear what the community thinks about adding both. The poll is pretty close and I think we might as well. Let me just give everyone a idea of what the highway would be. Everyone knows the NYC map? Well it would be just like the subway routes. The name of The Highway is Montauk Highway. It is a highway that stretches the length of the Island and could enchance game play. I am thinking it will start in Hempstead, then go to Islip, to North Brook Haven, To Westhampton, To Easthampton. I would like to hear what everyone has to think about a "both" idea...
P.S.: First in a new Era of my posts, thanks MrBenn

I was originally considering this map before winning the CA comp. One thing I was going to be sure to include is airports as attack routes- there's enough in Long Island alone to make cross-map attack routes. Maybe if you use this you can drop a couple of the yachts.

I like the idea of a Long Island map, but I think the boats are horrible. I'd rather see a few highways added (Sunrise/Montauk, GCP/Northern State, Belt/Southern State) and split the regions up a bit, make it more like the Sydney Metro map. Maybe add in the LIRR, and a few stations to function as the Bus routes do in Sydney, add in the ferries to Conn, and the beach islands, and have the highways as impassible (except for a few areas) barriers. I think that would be WAY better than the boats.

So you are saying eliminate the boats completely?
Thanks for the comment

Do you know any subdivisions and we will make a poll about the boats...

Sub-divisions, sure
Massapequa can be split to add Amityville
Oyster Bay can be split to add Mineola
Babylon can be split to Babylon and Lindenhurst
Huntington can be split to Huntington and Deer Park
Islip can become Brentwood and W. Islip
Smithtown can become Northport and Smithtown
Bay Shore can be Bay Shore and Central Islip
North Brookhaven can be Centereach, Stony Brook, Rocky Point
SW Brookhaven can be Patchogue
SE Brookhaven can be Yaphank
East Hampton can be split to E. Hampton and Montauk
Fire Island can be split to add Robert Moses
Oh, and Nassau is the correct spelling....and I believe the Shelter Island Ferry doesn't actually go to the North Fork, but for gameplay it should connect to each fork.
Hope that is what you were looking for, I have plenty more info if you want.....

Jones Beach

Shoreham
Shea Stadium

with all of thes sub deveisions, i don't think there will be room for army circles or territ names, and to have them clumped up outside of the territ borders, might make things get cluddered
