PTW.

I've been experimenting a bit trying to make the territory borders pop more, so the map is more visible. It's current state is a bit busy. Are these blue background lines an improvement?

Quite, though there is a lot of ocean. A lot more visible now though.

[Naturegirl1999]

Yes, this is good

Humans seem horrible, can I switch to Poult? I still take last place in initiative order

[notquitethere]

I've tried tweaking it so the neutral border lines on land are different than on sea. Are any of these an improvement?

Sure, there's no harm in swapping at this stage. Just give me a new civilisation sheet. Weirdly in previous games everyone thought humans were OP but I don't think anyone has yet played them.

I think if Shadowclaw and I switched to darker shades to match the other players, number four would work quite well. As it is I feel either the light or the dark shades blend in too well with the neutral tone.

[notquitethere]

Ok, so I've deepened the shade of pink and lavender, so it should pop a bit more against the neutral and be easier to see all the different borders at a glance:

IU like these, I like the most recent one too

Civilisation: Organization of Clucks
Colour: Dark Green
Heresy: Builder
Species: Poult
Population: 2
Population Range: 1-2
Turn Order: 9

Embark at 112
Industrious Improve: Deforest 112
Grow 112
Build City on 112

I prefer number 2 for map design because then 3 and 4 aren’t glaringly bright. Choosing Dark Green so my Cyan border doesn’t conflict with the Lakes

Also if I Deforest a Tower City in a Forest, will that keep the city square?

[notquitethere]

That's all fine, Shadowclaw, except that SHAD0Wdump still needs to take their turn, and may choose to embark on or adjacent to 112.

As for this:

Also if I Deforest a Tower City in a Forest, will that keep the city square?

Yes, it will keep the city square. Razing and converting to a tile type which is neither a plain nor your favoured terrain both destroy cities, but converting to a plain (which is a valid city location) does not. Or put another way: if the end result is somewhere you could ordinarily build a city, and the action doesn't say otherwise, the city isn't destroyed.

PTW, May even go and read the older games

Also, Ferngully! Good film, good choice!
