Hi again Billfish...
I think I will continue the discussion with you here in this thread rather than over a Ubi.
My first thoughts were to bring a natural progression from the Slot map with a map of Rabaul, exactly what you call a New Britain map over at the Zoo.
But the guys in Team Pacific wanted to stray away from the Solomon area a wee bit more, and work on something that would have better replayability than a New Britain map. 3 hour long flights just to get to a target is not something everyone enjoys, so we are leaning on a bigger and better map of New Guinea.
Right now the Slot map is 825km x 600km approximately, so that is the size of the area we are going to focus on for our New Guinea map. There are people out there creating maps that are 1000km x 1000km or more, but we believe that the size of the Slot map we created offers a large area, all while keeping the scope of any future project within reason.
