What about building a very huge map (like you need a 3d skybox to even get it in.

Rail = no. Too generic.

Unless it was to create a short train journey.

Battlefield


War-Torn. Doesn't matter if its a city, or the country, but it would have to portray war, death, and chaos.

I was thinking just anything to do with trains, maybe that's a bit boring though :?

"Underwater". You could do like a coral reef or an underwater base or anything.

A space theme? Could do a space station, a shuttle launch, an intergalactic battle, or just a serene view of the stars.

Wouldn't that require a few custom textures though?

Probably, but I've seen some texture packs that have a lot of them. If I entered I don't think I would have to make any myself. I'll have to go back and find where I downloaded them, and I'll post a link.

Edit: Here we go. Pretty sure this is it. Lots of space goodies in the concrete and metal sections.

lose the -torn and you could have a nice theme...

just WAR could have a wide varia of screens... trough out history they all looked different or you could do a just before tension or an after disaster, a war room, a chaotic battlefield, a warrior, a training camp, a castle, a nuclear base, a foggy field in the morning with opposing forces,... the list goes on and on.
