Quick Village SS6
In the eastern part of the village, I needed the palisade wall to be at a slightly different angle and so just rotated it by 15°. This however throws it off kilter compared to the other sections... it looks like it is leaning inside. Do not know how to adress that one.
Unfortunately, that's a limitation of isometric symbols in any style. They can't be rotated (and still make sense). CC3+ is just a 2D-mapper, so to create a 2.5D style like this, symbols have to be drawn in a special way to create the illusion of three dimensionality by building the perspective into symbol image itself, but that also make the symbols only work when they are oriented the way they were originally drawn.

Remember ProFantasy have a 14-day money back guarantee, so you should get your money back without problems at all.
If you still want to give it away, I would be happy to take it and use for a prize in a future mapping competition. Not planning anything yet, but there will always be one at some point.

Re-scaling the entire map can be done simply by using non-visual scale and just selecting all the entities. Unfortunately, this doesn't change the scaling of the effects or the fills, which needs to be done through the respective dialogs.
I did write my own command that just does all of that for me.
There's more information in this blog article, especially in the "Rescaling Things" and "Rescaling the Entire Map" chapters near the bottom of the page.

Layer effects changing draw order?
To comment on one other thing from your post
@Tyrel Froese wrote
From what I understand CC3 has zero capacity to change draw order of entities within a sheet
You can reorder entities using the ordering buttons, such as :CC2INFRONT:, :CC2FRONT:, :CC2BEHIND: and :CC2BACK:. All of these reorder entities within the same sheet. This does not fix the actual problem you were experiencing of course, but that has been discussed above, and this may help you arrange other things in the future.

Campaign Cosmographer Insert template
Are you putting the image on it's own sheet? Not that this is required, but it makes it easier to handle to avoid for example the image ending up behind the background or similar.
When you insert the image, do you properly give it two corners as the command line asks for. The two points you provide as corners determines the size of the inserted images, so if you click two points really close to each other when inserting, it will be tiny.
Also make sure the image is actually a png image. Try to open it in a local image editor or something. Lots of websites does weird things, so you may have accidentally ended up with the html code for the page saved with a .png extension instead of an image.
