First off, I know next to nothing about making maps, so you'll probably see plenty more of me around here asking a bunch of annoying questions, but it's my dream to be able to make some good multiplayer maps for MOHAA.
Now, when I make a new map are there any steps to follow to create the terrain?
And after I have that set, how do I make fences (namely the kind with barbed wire curls across the top)?

Well terrain is difficult to get right when your starting out but anyways mybe have a look at Bjarne's tutorial http://www.planetmedalofhonor.com/rjukanproject/
You will find some other good tuts on there also.
As for fences etc you need to make the brush with the No draw texture (located textures/common) then texture just one side of the brush only (ctrl shift left mse button).
Some things will be models (right click then static/obstacles barbwire etc)
By the way...welcome to .map.
Seere.

Thanks to all for the help!
I now have terrain with a 'skybox' surrounding it with a sky texture and the rest is caulked. When I compile my map to test it, the map loads fine but when I enter the map it's nothing but a black screen, and it says 'Game Saved' in the corner as if it were a single player map. In Mbuilder's options I have single player unchecked. Is there something blaringly obvious that I'm not doing right?
Do I have the map caulked incorrectly so that everything can't be seen?

Never would have thought of that, thanks. 
Another question:
Aside from making custom textures, is there any way to change the color of a texture? That is to say changing a texture of blue wood paneling to a greenish color, etc. I tried the color changer in the surface properties box but it never seems to do anything.
