well done! just one questions: what map size is good for a map like Duclair 2vs2 from coh1?
Let me refer you to the first part of this tutorial, if you have questions regarding map sizes

To be clear, I know how to import heightmaps. What I'm referring to here is the ability to import a large image (kindof like a really big ground texture) to use as a template.
Thanks again for the great video series. Looking forward to future editions!

Great video series! One question, though. How can I import an image into the map to use as a template as I build the map layout? I saw this done in relic's worldbuilder video (approximately 1:02). There is also a blog post which mentions the technique (http://www.snakebytestudios.com/tag/company-of-heroes/) But I cannot find any actual instructions.

You can manipulate spline "nodes", or "control points" by using these buttons in the tool bar:

Tutorial coming up later today.

It requires modding, of course but it's relatively easy.
