Mapping with Textures

Mapping with textures is a subdialect where a mapper overlays a paper texture, grid texture and/or water and grass texture over the original map. It can remarkably improve the atmosphere and look of the map.

Note: For some nice textures go here.

How it's done
''Note: It is always handy to have a backup folder of all the original slides. If something goes wrong, you can always do it again. Also, you have to merge layers for each slide individually.''
 * 1) Download a texture image file(make sure it's not copyrighted) or make one yourself.
 * 2) Open your original map.
 * 3) Open a new layer and paste the texture over the map. You can adjust the opacity until it suits your needs. (Or if you can, change layer type to Overlay or something else)
 * 4) Make the wars, the text and stuff as you would do without the textures on the map layer.
 * 5) Merge the layers and you're done
