This is a map of entire world, quite detailed. It is designed as a recreation of world history, with historical locations of all civilisations as the ideal places for your first town centers.
Each player starts with a transport ship and 4 villagers.
Players 1 -4 start on arctic circle, and players 5 - 8 start on antarctic circle.
E.g. Mongols should start north of China, in the steppes of Mongolia, while the Spanish conquerors should start on Iberian peninsula.
Trade, explore the wealth of Latin America, the Far East, Siberia, India or far to the Hawaii.

Finally I found a map that is made with the real intent of the designers of AOE. I have AOE 2, and the vast majority of those who post scenarios on here, create them as battle maps. And they look pathetic. They rarely put resources on their maps, and very little creativity, like mountains, lakes with fish, rivers with fish, oceans with fish, cliffs, and lots of gold, rock, deer, etc. I would easily say that you are one of if not the best scenario designers out here. I absolutely LOVE this one. I play it alone, so I changed the other civs to computer control, and set them up on different parts of the map, and it works great. It is unbelievable how many people put scenarios on this site that crash when you try to open them. Some forget to put a .scn at the end of their file. I hope to find more of your work on here. Thank you for making a scenario that is fun.
