Great work, XYZ!

I really like this, especially the city graphics. How did you make them and can I steal them all? To create cities, I use this method: https://i.imgur.com/aRVTR5D.png You can use them at will. ;) Ok, I think I can probably manage something like that once the muse strikes me again. Before I forget, ...

This new crop of units is looking good!
I like the dynamism of the horse.
The stormtrooper wearing armor and carrying a rifle on his back looks cool too.
The Militiaman has a hilariously fat gun, but that's not really a problem. No doubt what he's packing!

I don't play the Trident set, so, my comment may fall into a minority. I prefer by far the "Ugly, jagged, and visually distracting", it looks more "realistic". Hans Lemurson's "RoundSquare Tileset" is too clean, reminds me of a crossword puzzle. Although it is a remark...
