Suggestions for Map Making
Just some ideas, not sure if there are technical limitations, or if they just go against the Warlight concept, but I'll throw them out.
1 - Manual approval for maps larger than the default size limit. I'm sure some really interesting things could be done.
2 - Enable setting the neutral color scheme, including transparent. I know this could be used poorly, but it could also make for some really cool maps. One example would be a parchment map, that gets filled in as players go along rather than starting all grey.
3 - The ability to set custom properties for territories. Increased defense, max units, slowed movement, increased viewing distance(watch towers).
4 - Ability to force territory borders to the background or have the top-most layer be above them. Here's an example:

On the left is the SVG, on the right is in-game. Notice how having the territory border ruins the pop and 3-d feeling. I was trying to make similarly styled forests, but the contrast between green trees and all sorts of territory colors just looked horrible.
