Wisconsin - Cheese Heads
version 1.2
rated 3.4 (44 votes)
by Mark Bauer   

 
Big Cheese's latest attempt at consolidating power was courageously blocked by the United Soy Producers Union. Furious, the coalition of Cheese manufacturers put the lactose contingency into effect. A plan that bears striking similarities to the lysine contingency put forth by John Hammond in the late 90s. Basically, the lactose contingency withholds the precious nutrient from the diet of millions of citizens. These citizens, having become so dependent on lactose, turn into mindless zombies willing to do the Cheese makers bidding in exchange for the delicious dairy product. However, the lactose contingency backfired and the citizenry became mad, violently consuming all cheeses, even the stinky ones. As stockpiles dwindle, the populous becomes more enraged and more desperate. Now, Big Cheese has found themselves surrounded by ravenous cheese eaters bent on getting revenge! Will the lactose intolerant inherit the earth?

Part of the Then and Now series. Check out Wisconsin Then in "Wisconsin - Beaver Wars."

Australis Maximus
version 1.0
rated 3.4 (39 votes)
by John Welsh   

 
The real Australia, based on topography & population. Beware the limited connections through the mountains in the SE and through the deserts in the centre.
Make player 6 a neutral-sandy colour for best visual effect with the starting scenario.

Castle Lux Mini
version 1.0
rated 3.4 (36 votes)
by Sillysoft Games   

 
Castle Lux Miniature edition

Recommend playing with 4 players.

For filling the paradise of Ipodia with so much carnage and bloodshed, Lord Quasar smites his subjects by subjecting the heavenly kingdom to a series of massively destructive earthquakes. Ipodia violently broke apart, large portions sinking into the sea until there is only but a miniature portion of the once glorious paradise. The dazed and shaken Luxers soon set about rebuilding upon this tiny rock, but they did not learn the lesson. For to a Luxer, any land, no matter how small, is worth conquering!

Earth vs Mars
version 1.1
rated 3.4 (33 votes)
by Sillysoft Games   

 
The year is 2064. Last year, humans finally made it to Mars. To their surprise, the red planet wasn't so lifeless after all. Their first diplomatic mission went horribly off course, when the humans inadvertently offended the native Martians. A vast cosmic war has been triggered! At stake...the galaxy!

LuxLAX - Los Angeles Intl Airport
version 1.4
rated 3.4 (30 votes)
by ryanjt   

 
**v1.3 think i FINALLY got all the connections right. sorry...first map!

A traveler has come down with Swine Flu in Los Angeles International Aiport. The airport is on lockdown to prevent the further spread of the virus. Help the government secure the terminals and airport grounds before a full blown outbreak can occur.

The infected passenger arrived via Terminal 1, and the virus is quickly spreading from that hot zone. Working with the Airport Control Tower, three containment teams from the CDC, DOD and HHS have been dispatched to begin their sweep of the airport.

The dotted lines are lines of attack from terminal gates to planes, and from plane to plane on the tarmac.

The central air traffic control tower is in “radio contact” with any marked plane, and all marked planes are in contact with one another.

Island Warfare
version 2.1
rated 3.4 (30 votes)
by Ryan D   

 
Based upon my favorite maps The River and The Confluence. It is my first time using the map generator, so please excuse the crude lines. All capitals of the countries are linked to each other. There are some bonuses out of proportion to the country size in the hope that it creates larger battles than they normally would have. Enjoy!

Mississippi - The Magnolia State
version 1.2
rated 3.4 (29 votes)
by Mark Bauer   

 
The situation in Mississippi is dire! In a desperate search for answers, rural Mississippians begin forming ragtag militias and advance on the metropolitan areas. The capitol of Jackson is paralyzed with panic as the populous becomes increasingly frightened by the violent toothless backwoodsmen. Not knowing what else to do, the governor organizes the city into a lethal fighting force and engages the marauding rural folk. Mayors across the State follow suite, and soon the State is finally leading the nation...in violence!

The Battle of Tippecanoe
version 2.1
rated 3.4 (28 votes)
by mnemosyne   

 
In 1811, William Henry Harrison, Governor of the Indiana Territory, marched on Prophetstown, located at the confluence of the Tippecanoe and Wabash rivers. This settlement, founded by the great Shawnee Chief, Tecumseh, and his brother, Tenskwatawa ("The Prophet"), was a place where several tribes from the area, including the Shawnee, Potawatomi, Delaware, Kickapoo, Wea, Winnebago, and Miami, came to live, work, and commune in peace. Harrison massacred the inhabitants of Prophetstown, destroyed the crops, and burned the village to the ground.

Tecumseh, enraged by this continuing aggression, travelled from Canada to Florida in an attempt to rally a confederacy of Native American tribes to resist the Euro-American "Long Knives" in perhaps their last best attempt to resist the ceaseless encroachment of the euro-american colonial invaders. Eventually, the British entered the fray in the full-blown War of 1812.

Governor Harrison was celebrated as a "war-hero" and later ran a successful presidential campaign under the slogan "Tippecanoe and Tyler, too," which referenced his "victory" at the Battle of Tippecanoe, and his Vice-President, John Tyler. Harrison died of pneumonia only one month after his inauguration, the shortest U.S. Presidency in history.

Indiana was granted statehood in 1816, and pursued a vigorous campaign of settlement and development per the vision of its infamous first territorial governor.

Swiss Alps
version 1.1
rated 3.4 (26 votes)
by Laurent Cavin   

 
The Lords of Zurich are unhappy: all other northern Lords, be it from Bern, from Lausanne or from St-Gallen control some key routes through the alps, and can levy taxes on goods transportation - and excellent source of revenue as most of the european goods have to pass the alps.
But Zurich is limited by the southern Tessino Lords that control the passes. This situation is intolerable...

A swiss map with lakes and mountains only passable where real roads or railroads have been built. "Continents" do not represent real political entities. In the south (bottom), the thick pink lines indicate two-way connections between countries (through France or Italy).

Lux In Flux2
version 1.0
rated 3.4 (24 votes)
by Nimrod7   

 
Lux is in turmoil once again. Some new nations have risen and some banished countries have united to compete for domination. Not happy with how their beloved forums have been run, the retired Lux Moderators have returned and declared war on the next generation.

Canada
version 1.5
rated 3.3 (109 votes)
by Uber   

 
It started when the province of Quebec declared unilateral independance from Canada. The federal government sent in troops, but the Quebecois Libre had the support of the local populance. The 'League of Western Canada' decides this is their best chance and declare Alberta and BC a seperate country as well. The only problem is that many in BC don't agree. It doesn't take long before local warlords start trying to grab more territory for themselves, and that's where we are now.

Violate the NAFTA! North America is now for the taking.

Includes a few twists - Ontario can't attack Quebec because zay cannot understand ze French road signs plus a few of the Mexican states on the US border have secret one way attack routes...blame it on the tunnels. Enjoy.

Age of Genghis Khan
version 1.3
rated 3.3 (99 votes)
by France   

 
Conquer the old world in the Age of Genghis Khan! Start out as a crusading Kingdom, Arabic Sultanate, Chinese Dynasty, Japanese Empire, or as the Mongols themselves. Boundaries and borders based on established states and ethnic groups' ranges during that era. Note sea connections: Japan to Korea and Southern Song, France to Britain and Ireland, Scotland to Norway, and Italy to Greece and the Holy Land. Ideology based scenario. Ideal set up would be with low continent bonuses.

ww2_Europe_1940
version 3.8
rated 3.3 (98 votes)
by davide nahaissi   

 
The 3rd installment in the world at war series!
with = 1458
height = 607
This is inspired to the already existent WWII Europe scenario.
I used a satellite Europe map as background and defined better the continents.
All fleets have a -1 bonus.
The borders are the ones of 1940 Europe; Poland is splitted between Germany and USSR.

- The presence of the Maginot line allowed Franch to invade germany but not vice versa;
- The germans were the only who could pass through the ardennas forest (twice). So Germany can invade Paris area but not viceversa.

Enjoy!

In ver 3.3 I changed the initial owner of Canada.

Just an hint: since a lot of countries are quite small, disable the "Show army graphics" option in the preferences to get a less confused board..

Africa 1660

Play Lux on a map of ancient Africa

Cretaceous
version 1.1
rated 3.3 (87 votes)
by Evan Williams   

 
One hundred million years ago, the first Tyrannosaur opened its eyes and gazed out at a world it intended to rule. First, however, it would have to deal with its competition...

Welcome to the Middle Cretaceous! Earth's geography is recognizable, but only barely: the Alps, Himalayas, and Rockies are all nonexistent; shallow seas cover and divide much of North America and Eurasia; Antarctica, still connected to Australia, is a lush paradise instead of an uninhabitable wasteland; and India is separated from the rest of Asia by the world's second largest ocean, the now-forgotten Tethys.

Tactically, this map forces you to choose between offense and defense. Will you station your armies on your borders in order to harass enemies and keep constant control of your continents, or will you keep them at the center where they can respond to attacks from any direction? Will you go out on a limb to control multiple continents, or will you defend one heavily while taking extra countries where you can? Will you guard valuable chokepoints, or leave them for other powers to fight over? Fighting too many wars simultaneously can only destroy you, but passivity can leave you unprepared to face an emerging dominant power.

Good luck!

800 simple squares with the same topology as hexes. Joined as a sphere.
No continents. This is interesting for watching bot vs bot strategy and attack patterns.
computer speed fast, no explosions, no sound for most fluid display. Not recommended for humans.

MapLab update: Added a starting scenario (intended for 3 player teams.)

Throne
version 1.2
rated 3.3 (76 votes)
by Eric Nusbaum   

 
There are two halves to this map - upper and lower. The Crown continent can attack ANY country in the upper half. But the Perim continent is the gateway to the lower half. Crown cannot attack Perim, so you must use the bottom countries in the upper half to get to Perim. 96 countries spread among 14 continents, in total. Give it a try!

Need to play Lux at work? No worries. If the boss walks in while you are playing this map he'll never know. Play classic that's disguised as an Excel spreadsheet. Don't forget to turn off all the bells and whistles in your prefs for true stealth at work.

North Polar Chart 1882
version 1.2
rated 3.3 (68 votes)
by top row   

 
update - version 1.2 scenario added

The North Polar Chart mapped the known arctic coastlines at the time. An international effort was underway to conduct a synchronous exploration and scientific discovery of the north polar region.

Since exploration and mapping of the entire arctic was not complete at the time, the map has a large unexplored region around the pole. Also, Franz Josef Land north of Siberia, is innacurate. The country and province borders and names are accurate to the 1880's. For example, all of Ireland was part of Great Britain at the time.

Unless a line connects an island to another land mass, it is not connected.

Penguin Paintball

The humans of Earth and the Martians had been grappling for control of the Inner Planets for over a decade.

The huge planets of the outer system unexpectedly dropped their "gassy" cloak and revealed huge military regimes determined to conquer the entire Solar System.

Arizona - the Grand Canyon State

As of 2006, Arizona has become the fastest growing state in population in the United States. And all those people have to go somewhere. Under the influx of new residents, fighting breaks out amongst the regions of the state - which area will conquer the rest and control the masses?

General Nathanael Greene
New York City is all but lost. The British and Hessian soldiers have almost taken Harlem Heights and with it my fort. Cornwallis will soon be on his way to you in Fort Lee. I fear you must retreat as we have been forced to. Gather what men you can from Fort Ticonderoga to Fort Niagara. To win the war for our new nation, we must Win the War for New York!

British Columbia Georgia Straight

This map includes a portion of British Columbia's lower mainland, Vancouver Island, and Gulf Islands.

In the starting scenario, five players have armies consolidated across seven "continents": Vancouver Island, Sunshine Coast, North Shore, Pitt Lake area, Vancouver, South Fraser, and Washington.

Revisions...

Central Asian Republic
version 1.02
rated 3.3 (48 votes)
by top row   

 
The Unification of the Cental Asian Republic 2011

Central Asia's population, made up of several ethnic groups, some of which are concentrated in more than one country; Uzbecks in Uzbeckistan, Afghanistan, Kazakstan and Tajikistan, Tajiks in Tajikistan and Afghanistan etc. desires amalgamation into one republic. Combining ethnic populations wanting consolidation, with the Kazak people's weariness of Russia and a hope by all to contain Islamic fundamentalists now that foreign troops have left Afghanistan, Unification Militias in all Central Asian Countries form. These Unification Militias battle Nationalist militias, anti-unionist government troops and Islamic Fundamentalists to create one unified and strong Central Asian Republic.

Iran is pulled into the fight when a Unification Militia forms in its south eastern province of Baluchestan va Sistan. The militia there has the goal of separating this province from Iran and joining their ethnic cousins in the Balochistan province of Pakistan.

India, hoping to capitalize on Pakistan's involvement joins the fray in hopes of gaining permanent control of Kashmir, assuming a larger Central Asian Republic would be too concerned with other matters to fight for it.

The king decides to send a naval fleet in order to discover other territories to fill their lack of resource.

The fleet discovers an island which abounds in resource but it is already inhabited by different people.

But the orders are clear, they must obtain these resources at all costs because the survival of the kingdom depends on it.

The Iran-Iraq War: Iraq attacked Iran in September of 1980. Iraq quickly moved into Iran, but within a few months Iran regained their territory and was on the offensive for years to come. This was one of the bloodiest of all wars, most likely over one million people were killed. After eight years the war ended with a United Nations sponsored cease-fire. This time, there will be no cease-fire…
