Some of them are really good! So don't be shy and show/post them here on the forum too. Everyone likes new and fun to play stuff  !  8)

Wow, what a feedback! Thanks a lot!

These are too many maps to test for me, so please tell me which of them are "must have" maps. And tell me what they are especially meant for singleplayer and/or multiplayer?

(If it takes too long to test for me before release I will at least add the good ones to the mod download section later!)

UPDATE: and please tell me your license! Especially calvarr! Directly in MG we only accept CC-BY-SA V3 or public domain ( like CC0 Creative Commons Zero - public domain  )

All VBros mods are under the CC-BY-SA licence.
I think the same for that map?

Trappin's page contains much on most maps license notices (the maps made only by Trappin should be all CC-0).

so only calvarr's maps and some of Trappins' wiki are missing there license.

I had no time tesing the maps, yet, but will test (at least some).

Calvarr, I didn't make it to add some of your maps to the MegaGlest 3.6.0 release, but it would be nice to add them to the mod menu. Can you make some preview screens for them like ElimiNator did? Alternatively we could add them to the next point release (3.6.1) - if there will be one, or to the next minor/major release (3.7/4.0), in which case no preview screens are neccessary.

You should open some of the maps that came with glest to get an idea of what yours should look like. These ones look kind of empty with not much detail.

Firstly, thank you for adding screenshots to your maps. I hate to keep nagging about the importance of screenshots ;). You may wish to consider adding some of your maps to the Glest Wiki's list of maps (https://docs.megaglest.org/Maps/List) page, or I'll do so myself when I have the time. Though, I must agree with Elim about the maps being a bit plain. Take a look at what his picture of his map, "Duck Pond", looks like, a few posts above. I strongly recommend you take a look at this page (https://docs.megaglest.org/Maps/Editing#Map_design_tips) for some tips on map design.

on one map that i tried out, for some reason, units were able to pass through boulders.  i also noticed this problem in another map.  Im guessing the Boulders are missing some sort of collision detecting?  is there at least a way for me to remove these boulders from the map?

The issue is poor map designing. When you use a boulder in a map you must surround it with invisable blocker objects. You could manually fix this with the included map editor, and upload the fixed version for us to play :)
