I think the top 5 confusing maps are:

5- 8 Thoughts
4- Rail USA
3- Crossword
2- Valley of kings
1- Pearl Harbor

What are the maps that confuse you the most?

1 - USApocalypse
2 - Australia
3 - Philippines

I don't find any other maps confusing in any way.

I will say Valley of Kings and Rail USA are more challenging then most though.

It isn't. I suck really badly at Australia. Please don't shatter my confusion defense for that one. :(

Maybe it is just me, but I have not found any of the maps confusing. Some might be harder in some ways (like rail USA), but make sense none the less.

Haha I guess I'm just completely inept ( Is that spelled right).

Having played all the maps at least once, I can say that Great Lakes is the most confusing map.

8 Thoughts, USApocalypse and AoM make the most sense, if anything.

RailUSA by far.

I'll get used it though, considering I've only played it once so far.

I don't believe that I will ever understand Age of Merchants. For that matter I think that Pearl Harbor, Crossword, Chinese Checkers and Battle for Australia will see very little of the large steel robot in the months to come. :D

How can Battle of Australia be confusing? And Chinese Checkers? Optimus, I'm disappointed in you! :lol:

On topic.. Crossword. Holy crap I don't think I'll play a game on that. AoM, after thinking about it, isn't that confusing.
Can't think of too many others at the moment.. USA Rail isn't that confusing, I just didn't look at the legend (I normally don't :P) so I get it now

Pearl Harbour and Rail USA are the main ones that confuse me. VotK isn't too hard to work out and has good gameplay.

I am seriously surprised by some of the responses on here and how many people can't get some maps... Maybe it's just me.

pearl harbor
rail usa
valley of kings


I only have 3, however the more you play them, the easier they get. Now that pearl harbor map has ironed out some flaws, its better, there was some glitches the 1st couple days players played on it.


is the reasoning of some of the newer maps designed with a little more complexity to add to the skill level of play?

if so, super idea :D
