the maximum number of players for the map appears to be twelve as well.
Where are you getting that? My copy says for 8-10 players. But yes, welcome aboard.

Most of the time, the player number in the map description is just a suggestion.

Yeah, with 12 players on Cradle some of us might start uncomfortably close to others, but hopefully it will still work, especially since your start location will be guaranteed to have four neighbors.

I'm fairly sure that's something ScriptWolf set up (perhaps be default?), not something intrinsic to the map.
update:Oddly enough, no. the default is actually 8 players. And Llama let's you play CoD with as many as 24 players. This one's deliberate.

I tried to play chess but two of my opponents were playing competitive checkers as a third person walked in with Game of Thrones in hand confused cause they thought this was the book club.

Nah. I like smaller maps. Just note how this map is meant for a smaller amount of players, and see if you like it this way (it's actually more than the 15 provinces-per-player small random maps).

If there's a problem with that map, it's not that it's too small, just that the way starting locations are set up might not be optimal. I made a test game and marked all the capital provinces with a dot. This is just one potential game set-up obviously, but it illustrates some problems we could have with our game. Some people are too close, and some portions of the map are pretty empty.

Really the only way to fix this problem is to edit in fixed start locations, which is pretty easy, or find another map with fixed start locations. Or we could ignore it, since it's not a terribly significant issue.

Maybe you could set up a poll and we could vote on the map? I'll look around and see if we can find some good candidates.

Sure thing! Picking good candidates will depend a lot on whether the last two players choose land or water nations. I'll assume at least one chooses a land nation, since there are few maps that will work well with 3 water starts.

Cradle of Dominions -- Roughly 18 provinces/player

Glory of the Gods (multiplayer) -- Roughly 22 provinces/player
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Orania -- Roughly 23 provinces/player, Wraparound
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Urraparrand -- 15 provinces/player, Wraparound
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Greek Stain -- Roughly 17 provinces/player
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Realm of Roaring Rhinos -- Roughly 15 provinces/player, Wraparound
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

There are many other maps that could work, of course, but these are the ones I liked best.
