Ok I'll offer to make a map. I'll probably have gaming time over the weekend given it being Easter and I have pretty much decided on my 33 opening.
Currently my understanding is a:
Flat
Average sized 150-200 tiles per player
4 player
Water - some but navy not mandatory
Highly balanced but not identical
Only thing I would want to know is natural vs interesting - do you want a as natural looking as map as possible or more quirky placement of resources/floods for different settling options.
And of course plenty of barb submarines to make it really amusing
