Rattenzwinge am Königsdamm - a denser SS6 town

Another SS6 city in the tyrannical king's realm of our Splittermond campaign.
I struggled a bit with arranging the many symbols in the inner city. For some reason, the symbol order changed a couple of times when I adjusted other symbols. Grouping helped a bit, though.
Details of Krötendorf ("Toad Town"- the floating slum) and the Bone Island - where the bones of those buried in the swamp mysteriously end up, if the burial lacked the proper rites.
Some boats from Krötendorf are probably heading to The Swamp Rat.
The Travelling Elves have also fallen on hard times, as the king's "toll collectors" have started taking more and more. Only few of them seek out the old protected resting place near the city.
Unlike Hartenroth, Rattenzwinge's inhabitants have kept at least a bit of their money, so there's still a few merchants and farmers offering their products at the city.
A larger version is in my gallery.
Let me know what you think of the map.
Have a great Sunday! :)

love the docks <3
font are little difficult to read.
Cheers brother
Thanks a lot, Ricko.
had to fiddle around a bit to hide one or two"Dock houses" behind the palisade. I was also quite happy that the hedge gates were able to serve as "ok-ish" doors for the towers. The perspectives stuff uses different angles, so most of it is not so well suited for use with SS6.
The font is a "free for noncommercial use" one based on the handwriting of King Wenceslas of Bohemia. Was going for flavour over readability there.
Trying the other style variants right now. They look very good, but the Sepia is also Greyscale for me. Is that an issue with the beta, or how can I fix this?
I normally use the lightroom image processor as cc3 exports my final file in jpg or bmp format.
In my experience, the possibilities for changing contrasts, vignettes, shadows, colors, etc... in a lightroom or photoshop are much greater (and easier to implement) than those that the program makes possible.
I love sepia + grains ... made all Karkaroff maps in this style
Cheers
