I have tried to adapt the aesthetics of the map, within the great limitations of the game's graphics engine and my limited competence in graphic design, seeking to improve the appearance and readability of the game's maps. I have also taken the opportunity to improve the units mod, adding the missing view. I hope you like it and do not hesitate to comment on the aspects that could be improved.
Edited: Added map with color variation in height and correction of the representation of fields
Edited: Added a new version of the mod for Napoleonic games, with correction of several errors, some improvements and, above all, the reduction of the size of the counters in the magnified view so that the terrain is better appreciated and the division colors are better seen.
Edited: New version compatible with the important update 4.01 of the Napoleonic games.
Edited: Added a new version with bug fixes and some improvements: smaller units that allow a better visualization of the terrain, new icons for artillery and map with differentiation in height.

I'm afraid Update 4.03 may have broke this excellent mod.
Well only partially it seems. I tested the mod on Campaign Waterloo yesterday after I had updated it to 4.03. When I reinstalled the mod, the 2D maps work fine. However the 2D units does not. However as far as I have gathered this is because of the changing of file names in the game update.
Hopefully a renaming o the mod 2D unit files to match the new names in the game will fix this. I haven't tried it yet, but was thinking of doing it to see if that fixes the problem.
