SE Asia/Far East/SW Pacific (its on the map, honest [;)] ),  Kurile Islands to Guadal Canal. Lots of juicy reefs and part submerged islands rich in oil, gas and fishing rights for the major players to fight over. Not to mention vote selling in the UN for the small Pac nations in exchange for cash and good willy visits, not that your modern sailor type is into that sort of thing..... [8|]

So Far Tony the 2 areas I was most interested in are already on the list :-) I'm interested in watching the small boys battle the well equiped drug dealer (with maybe a surprize assist from Fedel, Raul & friends) (Hammerheads etc ...) and in watching the Terrorists and Pirates around the Indonisia and Solomons areas. I actually have in mind a small vessel action in the same area as the Savo Island/Ironbottom Sound area. The Red forces want to build up forward & recon bases preparatory to taking Borneo and it's oil. one side of the picers is down the Slot. Blue obviouly wants to prevent that but their recon capabilities are lacking in the area ............ 2-3 smal groups (6-12??) Gunboats & missle boats against a couple of FF or DDG & other small types accompanied by cargo types. Blue has no air or maybe 1 Nimrod out of Oz. Red has the helos on the DDs etc. Blue wins by killing the cargo types.

My nickels worth of free advice is to have a Battle Set for the West Coast of the US. This could give all types of disputes from the California area all the way to the tip of Alaska. It could give some great battles that could expose some weakness to the US on the West Coast side.

The other area that might be fun would be the Australia / New Zealand region. Those waters had some critical battles during WWII. Might be nice to modernize those battle with some new opponents!

I Perhaps divide the West Pacific battleset into North (20 degrees N. to 60 degrees N.)

and South (30 degrees N to 50 degrees S.).  You need some overlap to make certain campaigns with China practical.  With two maps you get greater detail on both but you still have the "epic" West Pacific scale.

Caribbean: Covers Venezuela, the Gulf Coast, parts of Brazil, parts of Mexico, lots of small island nations, and Cuba (approx. 30 N. to 5 S. and 100 W. to 40 W.)

South Atlantic: Covers Falklands, South Africa, Angola, etc. (approx. 70 W. to 30 E. and 15 S. to 60 S.)

Mid-Atlantic: Covers Brazil, Nigeria (oil = conflict!) Ivory Coast, Zaire, Angola, Cape Verde, etc. (approx. 50 W. to 20 E. and 20 N. to 20 S.)

Personally, I like the idea of having 2 different WestPac battlesets with overlap.  One from Hawaii to Cali and one from Japan to Hawaii.  Alot of history in these areas, and no reason we can't make more.

I didn't know quite what you meant for your left bounding marker, so here's what I did (these screenshots are just to get a feel for what the maps could look like for the suggested areas.
