do it all the time. usually first time nets anywhere from 3-7k. Second time up to 1k. Might be related to how much new map you've explored.

When a fox kills your chickens, do you kill the pigs for seeing what happened? No you go out and hunt the fox.

Hi,
Sold the map info to Carthaginians in Caralis in first couple of turns for a few grand. A couple of turns later when my ship had been to gibraltar and back to the Balearics I sold it to them again. Got about 1200 the second time. This is a nice easy way to get your bank balance kick-started at the beginning of the game I think.
Cheers,
Rob.

Map info seems extremely overpriced to me.
I can't think of anything that you gain with the map, which is worth anything more than 1000 denarii.
If violence didn't solve your problem... well, you just haven't been violent enough.
Call me stupid, but can anyone what benefit there is to obtaining "Map Information"?
Can you see parts of the Map w/o sending out Spies or Diplomats?
Thanks.

The next test is the MedMod 3.14; strive with honor.

It can be useful in dealing with another faction near the beginning of the game, you might just encounter tham and not be impressed, but getting there map shows them to be holding loads and land meaning they are probably rich and rich=power=don't screw with until you have more data...
Or it may show they only have a couple of territories and are ripe for conquest..
