I notice, Aoi99, that in some of the later Bill Peters titles in the Napoleonic series, where Bill has really gone out of his way to make the landscape detailed, with lots of fields, the effect with your new field tiles can be quite cluttered and difficult to read. It helps to use the original hex edges in these titles, I think, so I put them back in, in order that the beautiful contours don't get lost. Picture below from RBR, from a piece of map near Jemappes, so you can see how the original contours are a bit more visible in these high-density field titles...

But I looked again at Ferraris and I noticed that his fields are much less labour-intensive affairs. Here's a pic from Ferraris also near Jemappes. You see the fields represent a much more sweeping kind of Belgian field, whereas your more detailed fields look more like bocage type tiles, maybe. Just a thought. The use of fields a bit more like those used in the Ferraris image would reduce the clutter, of course, and still be accurate.
