Re: New small 4 Player Map (My Dom2HexMap trial ru
Thanks for the feedback shovah, glad you enjoyed it! 
I agree on the hoburg province. I was tired, and the effect just seemed to fit at the time, but looking back at it, the sharpest teeth were a bad call. Any suggestions on something to spice up the little ant commanders?
I am attaching an updated & zipped tga with an alternate border color that is hopefully a little easier on the eyes than the red borders. I am still not happy with the choice of colors, but it is a little less obtrusive.
Below is a screenshot with the alternate border color:

Re: New small 4 Player Map (My Dom2HexMap trial ru
the hoburg provinces are a little weak aswell, maybe make one of their commanders like a giant hoburg (size 4-5, good equipment)

Giant hoburg!
Have it be a gold-clad Jotun Herse, name it Carrot, and give him Faithful the sword. Not exactly the one in Discworld, but I think would be recognizable.

How about air shield medallions and burning pearls for misc slots, and the lighting whip for weapons? Maybe that isn't strong enough, but the problem with giving hoburgs excellent equipment is whomever kills them can get it.
Hmm, what about lycan amulets?

I am not familiar with Discworld, but will research it this weekend.

I was actually refering to the actual giant ants that are commanders. They have names like Nipp, Nitt & Nibble. 
Initially I had given them nature 1 so that they could command the other ants (which require magical leadership), and the sharpest teeth to give them a poison "sting" and bracers of protection for a tiny increase in prot & def. The intention of the hoburg provinces was to give a reward of high resources combined and the ability to churn out decent little hoburg armies.  Also included the ants just because I had never run across them in the game before.
I have an idea for the provinces, but will not have time to implement it until sometime this weekend.
Thank you for the ideas!
(Keep 'em coming!)
