Terra Global Map: World Wrap left to right Huge Oceanic Map: 104 plots wide, 64 plots tall, at "Standard" map size Bigger than Civ3!!! Terra maps are BIGGER THAN equivalent Civ3 maps of the same sizes! Simulates Earth: Randomly generated landmasses that roughly simulate Earth's continents! Old World Start: All civs start in the "Old World", equivalent to Asia-Europe-Africa New World: The "New World", equivalent of the Americas, will have to be discovered Third World: Some small landmasses or island chains may be reachable from Old World

Tilted Axis Sideways Map: World Wrap top to bottom. Equator and poles run top to bottom, too Square Map: 64 plots wide, 64 plots tall, at "Standard" map size LANDMASS SIZE - Choose land mass sizes, from pangaea-like to tiny islands. Random - DEFAULT - Randomly picks one of the options. Massive Continents - Like Civ3's Pangaea. (That is, it's not ALWAYS one continent!) Normal Continents - Like Civ3's Continents. Small Continents - Like Civ3's Archipelago (or Civ4's on "Snaky Continents" setting) Islands - Like Civ4's Archipelago. Tiny Islands - Like Civ4's Archipelago (on "Tiny Islands" setting).

Wheel Regional Map: No world wrap Large Land-Heavy Map: 64 plots wide, 40 plots tall, at "Standard" map size Polar Climate: Icy at the map's center, warmer in the surrounding regions. Balanced Landmasses: Each player gets their own subcontinent, roughly equal in quality. Spokes: Landbridges connect each player area to the map's center region. Ring: Landbridges connect each player area to adjacent regions. AREAS PER PLAYER - Choose whether there will be "extra", uninhabited buffer zones. Random - Randomly picks one of the options. 1 Per Player - DEFAULT - One subcontinent per player, regions may be close together! 2 (10 Players Max) - Adds extra uninhabited regions, but this can only be done for up to ten civs. If more than ten civs are included, then you get 1 per player. LAND SHAPE - Choose the roughness of the shoreline for player areas. Random - DEFAULT - Randomly picks one of the options. Natural - Player areas will have spidery peninsulas, maybe small islands too. Pressed - Player areas will have some variance, maybe a peninsula or two. Solid - Player areas will have smooth shorelines and be more densely packed. RING WIDTH - Choose the width of the "ring" that connects all regions. Random - Randomly picks one of the options. 1 Plot Wide - Ring will be one plot wide. (Can build cities here to act as canals.) 2 Plots Wide - DEFAULT - Ring will be two plots wide. Canals are almost never possible. 3 Plots Wide - Ring will be three plots wide. Forget the canals! SPOKE WIDTH - Choose the width of the "spokes" that connect each area to the center. Random - Randomly picks one of the options. 1 Plot Wide - Spokes will be one plot wide. (Can build cities here to act as canals.) 2 Plots Wide - DEFAULT - Spokes will be two plots wide. Some canals may be possible. 3 Plots Wide - Spokes will be three plots wide. Canals are unlikely or impossible.
