The mountains are there to create plausible continents and restrict attack routes.

Also, because they are there in real life and geographical accuracy is key.

I hate the gameplay of this map. You can hold either half with a single territory. Not good.

Same here. I think adding 1 (2 tops) more sea route should fix the problem.

False.

Also, who is going to let someone hold a single half.

Added one more sea route for you "this gameplay sucks" people.

Also made them less jittery.

Ok, I'll admit it wasn't hard at all. It was refreshing having something to do besides fail at making good mountains.

1st one doesnt look too good, but i like the other two, but try making a darker outline and darker shading to see if that improves it.
