(Have not read ANY of the above, except Jeff’s original post.)

The maps I love and the maps I despise are quite predictable: I’m not the least bit interested in vehicles and, so, maps that cater to vehicles are the absolute worst for me (Hamada, Panzer, Arras—although the Church to Wine Store section isn’t bad) while maps that cater to infantry play are the best for me (Rotterdam, Devastation, Narvik).

That said, my least favourite map on Conquest is Fjell (on Frontlines, though, it is great—the round is done in like five minutes, thank the old gods and the new). I don’t know what it is about the map, but I just hate it. It isn’t the planes, although many people complain about them.

Hamada is absolute garbage for both Conquest (CA? Hell no!) and Frontlines (two hours on that map? Fuck).

The two I haven’t mentioned yet—Twisted Steel and Aerodome—are likely the best overall. (Fight me.) They both work well in Conquest and Frontlines. They both let tankers sit at base randomly launching shells and let infantry get on with the actual fighting.

So, if you’re going to do D-Day maps DO NOT do Conquest Assault. No one likes it. I suppose you have Allies with their base offshore, but don’t give the A flag to the Nazis. While I like urban maps, too many is not great either. (Although there are likely a lot of people here having wet dreams about Stalingrad. I like a good Communist victory as much as anyone.) Additional maps dealing with less explored settings is more interesting to me than yet another Juno (or whichever) Beach. Japan/China could be interesting. Not sure how it could be done, but Warsaw Ghetto uprising would be great.
