Doesn't look bad, but its a bit too HiRes like to me :-)
Especially the cities. I'm yet to see a tileset with good looking cities.
The nicest were IMHO in Daniel Bennet's tiles. His horses were nice too.

The thing i dislike more about HiRes is how the units are huge. It makes
everything look way out of proportion.

BTW: i propose you use some units from the engels tiles. His boats are
IMHO the nicest i've ever seen on a tileset. There are a couple other
units you may like too.
