Probably my favorite.

However, I really don't like ND Isles and I find I am less motivated to play when that one runs on and on.

Therefore, I could probably support a movement to set a maximum number of hours any map would run before it would automatically change even without reset.

Number of hours would be up for polite, gentlemanly discussion...

but I'm sure all you #@$@#%!& ((*@#$@!'s would support letting ANY map run at least 4-5 days, right?   ;)

I dislike the fact that there are virtually no spawn points for ground vehicles...I like variety.  :(

I just don't care which arena is up, as it affects my gameplay not one bit.

I love Mindanao the most for it's beauty and playability (air combat wise) but I do seriously wish they would revamp the GV spwan points as I miss that aspect of AH.

I love the terrain features, canyons and mountains and such, but miss the lack of GV spawn points.

Also, the layout assures the country in the NW a single front war.  Now, if it were possible to launch an undetected NOE attack.....     :)

This is a strange one for me.I hated mindanao before we got the new strat and roads etc but then once it was changed i really started to like it but I have to say I miss the choice of a ground war due to lack of GV spawn points.
Howevr when the fight does end up in the SE corner and we get to use the GV spawn points i find it a great map but its rare that i log on and those south east bases are being fought over.

Oh and i DO get a bit bored of mindanao if it lasts a whole week battling to and thro.Gets DULL  ;)

I too like Mindanao, definitely my favourite - even as a bomber pilot!  All those mountains just give an extra challenge, especially after 3.5 years of the flat AW terrains!   :)   I also enjoy the GVs, but even though there are less spawn points, I usually still manage to get a lot of time in them!  Plenty of water too for messing about in boats - wonderful terrain!   :D

decent terrain

One of its finer points are the higher alt bases, less time needed climbing and more time flying level to get a fight or base quicker.

Its a toss up between baltic and mindanao my self
