New map Facedown 8p version.

Awesome idea, but yes could use a bit of work IMO to get the true feel of face down.

First, original FD is a 4 player map, so they make it 8 players here, but the overall ore/gems is not scaled up anywhere close to the feel of 4-way face down.

I also very much dislike the additional tech buildings, especially airports. Airports make the version less credible IMO.

In the middle, I increased the gems and ore posts in proportion to the number of additional players in this version of the facedown. Also each ore spot carries equal amounts. I don't remember exactly; about 30k perhaps.

It is  very fun and balanced. I hope someone with enough spare time can shape up the hills and, yes, perhaps remove and replace the airports to stay true to the original. Also I need to get the HD minimap coded for the cncnet client. I have trouble convincing people to try it out with the low-reso minimap; it looks like an amateur project from that image.

But that's what it is. 
You didn't even bother to use different numbered cliff tiles so they look repetitive as shit.
