Beenox says that the mapping engine works a bit like warcraft's in that it will create shorelines and what not automatically for you. Will this sort of engine integrated map-making make it difficult to import tile sets of one's own? Or will that simply be a matter of making your own tiles and putting them down one by one without any of the auto enhancements that the default tiles would have?
And when will we here more about this new battle system?

------------------

It shouldn't make importing your own tiles any harder. I don't know
whether or not the auto feature of blending the tiles to match will
work for any tiles, or just the default ones.
