Personally, I like the Custom Continents. I'll play something else, but always find myself coming back to it.

Is Custom Continents always the same map? I have only played a handful of games and have never paid that much attention to the map as a whole.

Though I suppose putting it on random pretty much makes it "Continents" as well:p

I enjoyed the games I played on highlands and inland seas. Although with both, since there is no ocean, the barbarians were a bitch.

BTW, here's an excellent guide to understanding the various maps that come with the game:

awesome. I'm pumped to get some new civs in there, should make things a lot more interesting. I'm getting awfully tired of going to war against Kublai Khan. http://www.operationsports.com/fofc/images/smilies/smile.gif

yeah, I really need to add some new civs in, but I'm waiting until they get the grpahics and everything done on them.

After playing nearly 100% continents in Civ 3 I've found myself playing a lot of pangea in 4.
