Theoretically, both Atlantis and Jomon are nations with good water access in LA, able to fight R'lyeh. So I think it can be allowed, especially as we have both of them present.

As I said, Urraparand seems the best wraparound map to me. Also a Planet Rorshach, which has spherical geometry.
Among non-wraparound I like Tyrande & Dawn of Dominions, but these are possibly too small if you want many players. Then maybe World of Geometry or World of Symmetry.

I don't know about some maps but I know Orania only have a tiny strip of water, and Atlantis always starts at the coast. Though there's no garantee that R'lyeh won't steam roll Atlantis over first before I get any indie ranged units to take out the cheap mindblasting bastards or build a fortress in the water to recruit magic resist units which are only available in oceanic fortresses. R'lyeh would offer a challenge for anyone near the water without archers but I suppose it's not so bad.

But if it is early, would you really enter the water and engage R'lyeh or would you try to fight an easier target?

Urraparand is to small <10 provinces per player, Planet Rorschach would be an idea, as it is a wraparound map.

[Fantomen]

I'd like to play Caelum.

A good LA atlantis player would rush R'lyeh.

[Peacekeeper]

id like to take on Gath please.

[Ossa]

I'd like to take Bogarus

[Isokron]

I would like to take Midgård

[Hadrian_II]

we are filling up nicely and the winning map is Asia Twist.

But as asia twist has only 16 land starts if tomorrow in the evening we have 16 or less players we will start on asia twist and if we are more we will take planet rorschach.

I am afraid I will have to drop out of this game as my computers PSU has exploded. yes I am not kidding exploded in a shower of sparks and smell of burnt plastic. Luckily it is still under guarntee so I should get it fixed but chances are it will take weeks to ship it back and forth.
