I am trying to figure out the best way to find some good, challenging maps.
I ran through the single-player and enjoyed a good number of those maps. They were setup in such a way that the template was matched to the map fairly well, and it was sometimes challenging. I'm finding it hard to find this anywhere else.
I have tried the Community -> Map of the week. I don't find most of these very entertaining because the template is always generic. I don't have any templates that I know might work on these maps. They typically either end up just being luck based on where the AI puts you in the beginning, or the maps are so big that with my rig that I play on, 1000 spot maps are too unwieldy. Is there a place where someone has actually dialed in these maps that I don't know about where a specific template seems to be the fun or challenging one?
Is there any other place on this site to find decent and challenging (but not downright totally impossible without getting lucky)?
Thanks, Pile

I once desired a big, diplomacy-bonus (one bonus per territory) Japan map, and that map was called...
"Todо̄fuken Diplomacy".
That didn't even have "Japan" in it!
And then there were only two Hong Kong geographical maps, and then I saw "Victoria Harbour" by Nikitan, which contained not much extra than what I wanted, and several other smaller isles in HK landscape for small games.
I understand, but it takes time, effort and logic.
