Given the diamond shape of AoE maps, the Sinusoidal equal area projection is pretty close. Uses a better projection to preserve land area. I know the community is old so something like this might already exist. I don't have the experience or time to create such a map but am willing to sponsor its creation. My proposal is to create a better version of the map to host these civ matches on. So you can't really build a base as the Malay as you have like 15 tiles of space.
Part of it is that it tries to project the lousy Mercator projection (which is rectangular) on to a diamond shape, losing even more land area. Sure it looks fine on the mini map but it's terrible largely because of proportions. The issue is the that the game's earth map sucks. So, coupled with the recent dearth of AoE2 content, I really enjoyed Dave's earth diplomacy game. As much as I have come to enjoy competitive play, most of my memories of the game are of roleplaying against the AI. I played my first game of AoE2 against a human last year. Background: I played my first game of AoE2 11 years ago.
