4X Map Recommendation

[God Taint]

Haven't played in about a year or so now, and I figure there's gotta be a lot of new maps available since then. Can anyone recommend a good 4X map to play on? Preferably one with a decent mixture of small to large fields, and without much terrain obstruction (rivers, hills, etc).

There are now so many to choose from, and It depends what you prefer.
I suggest you take a look at some map reviews on YT.

However I enjoyed "The Western Wilds" by ALiEN JiM, It has no field owners, as such has no contracts.
All the plots for sale have no fields and you will have to make your own.

I've not played this map or his other no mans land, as I tend to play UK style maps. However I'm thinking of trying one, and got 3 to pick from that I know of.

Western Wilds
No Mans Land
Hinterland

Which one would you recommend and why?

Elk Mountain is a really well made 4x4. It is set up so you can farm, log or mine. There are some prefab farms (that can be altered by the player) as well as open land so you can build whatever you like,

If you want a map with some existing 'infrastructure' then look at Elk Mountain. I personally like it not only for the play options, but also for the topography. You can set up some interesting logging and mining operations.

Not so say maps like Western Wilds and NML dont have a draw and I play them as well, but the focus is a bit different on those maps if just in the freedom you have to lay out your farm anyway you want with no limitations due to the topography.

FYI. No Man's Land is NOT 4x It's regular sized

Check out Rennebu it's on the modhub.

It's a 8 X 8km map. good mix of crops and forestry,

I'm using the Elm Creek 4x Edit by Stevie and really liking it. There's plenty of large zones added all around the vanilla map area, including several large zones without premade fields towards the north in case you want to make your own farm layout. The only caveat to note is that it's supposedly a bit more heavy on system requirements than Elm Creek, but so far I haven't noticed any degradation in performance on my end. Also, traffic does not seem to utilize the main roads in the expanded areas, save for the main highway roads.

I appreciate all the recommendations! After looking at all these maps and a few more, I've settled on the Rennebu 8x map.

Sounds good, mang. Happy farming!
