The best NTW2 maps IMHO were the fairly basic ones. Essentially flat with enough low undulating hills to make artillery interesting and enough trees to provide a bit of colour and doubt but not so many as to hamper your movements. ETW maps are way to complex, too many no-go zones, rocky outcrops, trees, massive hills and valleys...too much all in one map.
Yes, Empire have gone over the top with massive big mountains and lots of rocky ground.....the difference is rocks in ntw2 slowed movement, rocks in Empire STOP movement, it has it's place, but takes some getting used to......new Empire maps need less
very high ground, more like you say, undulating ground, with some features here and then, not too much on any one map.......that's what I'll be trying to do with the Lordz.
