And if you don't trust me, we can play which scenario you want and see if something is different. I say it's not so important to know most of the maps, because I sometimes can't remember (at the start for example), and when I know it's one map and it is like 0 AD, it wouldn't help me so much. It's just "ok, I know this map, nothing else".
Skill is much more important. And also how to use these things, is important.
If you know 2+2= 4 but when some people ask you " 2 + 2 = ? " and you answer 3 or don't even answer, it means you don't know how to apply it. Maybe it is too hard to apply (it was a silly example), maybe you don't remember.
Maybe it sounds too arrogant, but I bet if there would be new maps every time, I would do the same things I do now, maybe a just a bit slower sometimes. All this because, as I said, I don't know every tile of the map, from the first turn. And some maps are even similar to others
