Atleast HoMM games use tile-based system. With tiles creating a map is much easier, but Dominions doesn't really get any use from having tiles. On the other hand, making a map using HoMM editor and then converting it into Dominions map could be made much easier. Mainly, if the map editor/converter would allow:

1) change all white pixels to almost white, so that one could start adding capitals without worrying about the base map's colors.

2) adding map making commands to spesific province, either writing them or choosing from a list

3) adding and/or removing provinces, so that province numbers change, without changing the provinces' info. This would allow one to easily add or remove provinces from existing maps.

4) extracting province info from earlier maps. This would allow one to remake, for example, the Elric of Melnibone map made for Dom:PPP. This would also allow one more easily make a map that covers larger or smaller area of the same world that one of the existing maps already covers.
