Yes, I can tweak the tiles any way I want, and even change their (internal)
numbers if required so.

Is there any way to change the orientation of the tiles so it matches v2?

Scott,

 

These 18GA tiles already exist in Rails under different numbers: 170 and
391-398. These numbers predate the ones assigned by JDG for 18GA v2, and
seem to originate from Steve Thomas' PS18XX sets.

 

The story I have noted in my tiles spreadsheet reads:

 

"In the original Mark Derrick version of 18GA, these tiles were unnumbered.

Marco Rocci's Tile Dictionary numbers the 18GA tiles in the range 391-398
(Macon is 170);

according to Marco these were found in another PS set posted by Steve
Thomas.

In the later John David Galt version these tiles are numbered 451-459.

A third set of (low) numbers shows up in the 18GA tile set for PS18XX on
Adam Romoth's site;

those numbers have been disregarded in this spreadsheet."

 

For completeness sake, I should add that the 3xx numbers are (still) unique,
whereas the 4xx numbers have already been reused in 1854.

 

If you want to stick with the 4xx numbers, you can refer to these existing
tiles as follows:

        <Tile id="391" extId="451" ...>

This way, you'll have to use 391 in all XML, but the Rails windows will show
451.

Please be aware that most 3xx tiles in TileDesigner have a different
orientation as the 4xx tiles in Blackwater Station.

 

Tile #170 has a 'P' marker, instead of 'Macon', in this case it could make
sense to create a new tile with the correct inscription.

I (and possibly others) will work on finishing up 18GA in the next couple
weeks--it should not take much work.  Could someone add the following tiles?
Pictorial versions can be found on Blackwater Station.

Yellow

451    Three dead-end cities (30), exits NW,NE,S, "Atlanta"

 

Green

452    Three straight cities (20), crossing, "Atlanta"

453    K-shape city (30), "Augusta"

454    City (30), exits N,NW,SW, "Savannah"

 

Brown

455    Three straight cities (70), crossing, "Atlanta"

456    K-shape city (50), "Augusta"

457    5-way city (40), "Brunswick"

458    5-way city (50), "Macon"

459    City (60), exits N,NW,SW, "Savannah"
