So you want to a map that is basically a miniture version of the middle-east? How is it going to be balanced? What kinda of obsticles will there be? How big would it be? A lot more information would be needed to make a map that suits your tastes.

On the other hand, why don't you give it a try at making it yourself? WorldBuilder is included with Generals and ZH anyway and we do have more than enough tutorials for mapping here...

Hi, thanks for your reply. I discovered C&C Generals
recently, I got it for $4 in a thrift store. I found a
map I liked, and downloaded, the Iraq.map, the one with
Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Syria, Baghdad and Iran.
I have played a few games of Age of Empires before so
the learning curve was not so bad, but I did lose my first
skirmish. Then I got to thinking about my middle east map
idea. Set in the not so distant future, the radical Muslims
are threatening the world order. Afghanistan and Pakistan
are basically one nation, as are Iran and Iraq. The Saudis
and Egyptians are radicalized and united. And even the
Muslims of the former Soviet Union are united and Rad.
Standing in their way are the commies and the coalition
aided by India. As far as the map it should be as large as
possible with a few mountain ranges. Israel and India have
Europe and America backing them with money and arms
and most everyone else on the map is awash in oil money.
The most challenging player would be Afghanistan-Pakistan.
I also like unique battle engines in
turn based games. The board game shogun had
a killer battle system but the computer version
was uninspired. Axis and allies, Conquest of the
new world deluxe and shining force are also
favorites of mine, and the Panzer general series.
Wouldn't it be great to have the map from Israel
to China with the battle systems from one of these
games? The operational art of war comes close!
Anyhow I am not so good at making games and
maps. I have made a couple, in Age of Rifles. So
hopefully someone good at it will like this idea and
make the map. I have tried already to contact the
person who made the Iraq map, (which is all I play,
I don't really like the traditional 4 corners could
be anywhere type of maps, I want the drama of great
nations falling!) no reply yet. Anyhow thanks for
listening. I usually don't do much in forums and I
have not chatted for years. I do have a myspace,
