This map mode also making me sad. Why? Because there are other (war)games crying for good artist. Matrix, Slitherine, HPS are you reading this thread? Hire Jison and give him whatever he wants! For me, map is one of most important factors when deciding whether to buy a wargame or not. First impression really matters and what can have more impact on a first glance than a good map?
Agreed. But it shouldn't make you sad - there is clearly talent to be had out there. Developers just have to be willing to pay for it.

Jison, this map is great. It's the first modded map I have ever downloaded and decided to keep using.

Makes you realize anew just how important aesthetics can be to a game. Wonderful work and a gift. Thanks!

Do the existing weather graphics work with this map?

Lovely work, Jison. If you do commission work for Matrix and Slitherine I hope you don't give up your work on the Tiller/HPS games!

Y'know, I bet Jison here could improve on those, they are one of the weaker spots of the game. Especially mud.

Yes, and they still look bad.

The map is very well done, however, I went back to a different map after finding some personal issues with it.

The main reasons are:
• that I found the "greenness" of map made it difficult for me to see the unit counters, i.e. the contrast between the map and the counters particularly the yellow and green counters; and
• I found it too bright for my eyes.

This is just my comments on the map, allot of other people would fine it suits them well and use it all the time. Please do not take this as a criticism, because I certainly do not have the skill or the eye to do something this good.

Hi!

Very vitalizing with a new map.As said before; a great work.
The map looks real because it doesnt look so "tile-upbuilt".
A small thing is that the green colours perhaps could be a bit
less prominent.
