Aside from a Sci-Fi Mars or other Sci-Fi Space maps, the other idea that I might like to see is a map of the Mexican-American War. It has some interesting geography I think.

This is a good idea, and some one absolutely needs to do a map of Mexico. This would be a good one. :)

Here's an abandoned attempt, just to throw it out there. It would definitely be fun to see.

Right, interesting geography, lots of notable battles spread out across the map...and a nice area of 'disputed territory.'

I certainly don't have the skills, but hope someone does someday!
