You know what would be useful for the blank tiles? Sickers! Yep. Little sticky pictures for making custom tiles for those whose artistic prowess is, shall we say, lacking. White strips for roads, a few city segments, some green quadrants, a cloister, a pig, an inn, some wood, ore, brick, sheep... er... wait... wrong game. But you get my point.

For want of a tile, the road was lost,
for want of a road, the city was lost,
for want of the city, a farm was lost,
and all for the want of a tile.

I'm surprised no one has answered this post, I think it's golden! Only downside is, if you are using the tile bag to draw from, you'll be able to feel the stickered tiles.

Small images of the features would also e useful. That way people could design their own tiles far easier.  I sometimes take a feature modify it and then save the image for later use.

If we were able to set up an image library of features then it would be really useful.  You really only want the feature and not its surrounds. Categories could include:

     Small abodes e.g huts, tents, inns, small towers etc
     Road Segments - different lengths, directions, bridges
     Water features e.g rivers, small lakes, larger lakes etc
     Landscape features e.g. Bushes, rocks, trees
     City/castle  features
     Other e.g fences, catapults, wells etc

It may take some of the pressure of current tile design and may also encourage others to have a go.
