My thriving civilization hit a snag after I eradicated the trees and there isn't an coal    So I'm looking for a new challenge.

Spent most of the night making maps but the only things with magma pipes to spawn were pretty much otherwise uninhabitable.  Does anyone have some good maps with magma, some interesting creatures and otherwise inhabitable?

On a related note, I had one that looked good.  The first time I cranked it up for a look, its a ridge with a chasm in the middle, and frozen forest on both sides, it had a magma pipe and all sorts of chasm creatures, looked fun.  I saved a copy of that save file and then abandoned out to send in a good team.  Problem is, every time I've tried to restart it (whether with a custom or default), it crashes DF.  Just hangs up.  I'm guessing its because they were trying to drop me on a random tiny peak as big as the starting wagon.  Anyone have anything similar happen?

Sounds interesting, I'll try it out.

Any comments on the map crashing thing?

You could export the world-gen information from legends mode and use that to regenerate the world.
