Still no feedback on the map? Here's mine:

Looks like the map has a theme, which is always good but there are plenty of things to improve:
-overall elevation is poorly done, since there is no elevation at all.
-mountains don't look the same but they are way too flat, try to work on it.
-I see sometimes forrests with only 1 type of tree used, this looks unnatural.
-coalfields have too thick of a layer of coal on the edges, try to make it look more smooth.
-as it is now I think the map is too campy, why not create another large bridge somewhere?
-I see that the fisher is disabled for top team which makes sense since they have no fish to get but bottom team has 620 fish in the surrounding water, do you really think this is good for balance? Since I can't see a major bonus for top team.
-make sure that resources are balanced out. Location 1 has 2750 coal in the storehouse for free while others only have 350. IMO better let players mine for resources than giving it for free but that's your choice of course :)
-the terrain itself has some straight lines at some places which look unnatural.
- tile 138 58 is to steep to cut rock so 153 stones can't be cut out of the rock (use passability 9 slider in editor).
-some terrain near the storhouse is to steep to build on (use passabilty 3 slider in editor).
-resources in the storehouse in general are too high IMO.
-why does every player start with some troops?
-IMO the iron is placed way to far from the storehouse for most locations.
-find and correct sharp tiles on the map.

Ok that's it for now, good luck improving and keep us updated :D
