Any "Earth" User Made Maps?
I was wondering if anyone has made a "Earth" map for Alpha Centauri? I think it would be a great idea to prepare for Civ 3, by playing an Earth game with AC.

Well, I think someone has already made one. Should be in the SMAC downloads section of this site. Problem is, most of the land is < 1000m, so if there's significant global warming, you're in trouble. That, and there's no Unity pods.

You can also get it from the maps page of the Spartan Chronicles site:

With all respect, but it's a lousy map. Only the distinction between land and sea is made. There is no realistic rockiness, forests, rivers, elevation etcetera placed. I know where, in my humble opinion, you can find a much better Earth map. Take a look in the download sections of the Network Node and Chironian Guild sites. Unfortunately you can't download it from Apolyton - MarkG doesn't seem to accept SMAC files anymore. Anyway, in case you download it, please tell me what you think of the map!
Since I'm busy promoting the Earth map, I'll also promote a few others...  On the same sites you can download a small Chiron map and a Mars map and accompanying minor scenario. Though the scenario is in urgent need of an update. Should send the update through some time...

I'm currently playtesting a sequel on the Mars scenario, where the spaceship Olympus, fleeing from the nano invasion on Mars, crashes on a moon near a Jovian type planet, and encounters alien life there. Wanna have it after I'm done?
