If you're going to go the animated route, I suggest subtle animation of the archers (animate their expression) and a "moving rays" effect on the sun. It won't be much larger, and it'll keep up the tongue-in-cheek flair of this map.

I think animating the archers will be to much. It might be subtle but it will probably still be annoying to look at for long periods of time.

For starters, the bunny is perfect. Subtle, and the delay is enough to make one do a double take.

Just some little things:

I don't like the distance between the text and the bonuses...
10 Yards Target: 3

The first line that reads "Archer (auto-deploy)" is a bit hard to read.

Are the target stripes high enough for army counts?

That's all. Move along.

Changes here:

1. Changed teh sky color a little and increases the bullseye bonus text size to make it more readable.
2. Fix some spacing for oaktown

you've left the Bullseye: 5 on the right side of the map. I'm assuming this was meant to be removed. Or, possibly the +5 is in addition to the bullseye bonuses you've got listed on the left. If so, just put them all together (10 yards bull: 8, 20 y b: 11, etc..)

XML:

I think that's pretty good for the small map :)

To do: Large map. Get to FF.

The lobby and archers are spot on. In the next update ill try and create targets that will allow at least 1px of colour above and below the numbers.

Assumed that 40 was smaller - I think the white numbers in 30 make them appear better spaced too!
