p.s. I used urgaia as my color pallete, it did come out glowy, but not to bad, I think

also, updated the link. I fixed the maps so each land is only one terrain type.

Thanks for the new map!

You're right. The colors really pop, but very playable nonetheless!

I think I will give it a whirl for some SP practice.

I gotta say, with the CB mod, the recruitable trolls are out of control. 150 gold for a troll king? That's sick and wrong.

This discussion surely doesn't belong into a map thread, but you're so much wrong: CBM does not change the Trolls cost. In the unmodded game, the Troll (#518) comes @60 gold, the War Troll (#1037) @70 gold and the Troll King (#519) @150 gold.
Yes, the upkeep is meant to cost you insane amounst of gold.

I was complaining that they were too cheap, actually. Didn't realize the king was 150 unmodded as well. And 30 gold for a vanilla troll (under the CB mod) is kind of crazy.

yeah, but think of the upkeep. summoned trolls have no upkeep, but when you buy them in enough numbers to be effective, you'll end up in the poor house.
