I think all the ideas have merit. Borsuk's method sounds the most fair, but the last method is good because it allows people to actually play the nation they want.

Since many duels tend to end up as rush games and use small maps, let me offer a variant idea: 2 players and 4 AI opponents. The AI is for facilitating a larger map and longer game. Victory must be complete; not just against the other player. One player chooses a nation. Then the second player chooses a nation. Finally, the first player chooses the map, AI opponents and settings.
