Yesyes i understand that custom battles are derived from the campaign - sorry I didn't make that clear in the first post - but I wouldn't be asking for more custom battles if it meant having to design entirely new ones.
What I was saying was, most of the campaign battles are kinda flat and boring, but occasionally you come across one battle which is really interesting and offers loads of tactical possibilities, but its kinda frustrating because you can never recreate the battle unless you happen to fight on the exact same square again.
It would be awesome if someone spent an hour or two finding a few really good battledfields for the EB map, just cus it would add a lot to the game, and I wouldn't get so annoyed when i find a really good map in the campaign game if I knew there were a few good ones always available for custom battle, and not the same old RTW ones..
EDIT: Just a quick example: The other day I was playing BI as the Lombards. Somewhere in the balkans I met an army of Goths. My army was lined up on a big hill on one side of a valley (protected on my left flank by a large rock formation). On the other side of the valley the goths were lined up on a small wooded hill. In the basin of the valley there was an old ruined farmyard. It was all rolling countryside and the scenery around was really pretty. It just got me thinking that if there were a few maps this good available for custom battle it would add a lot to the game.
