Well, everyone, I finally decided to go with CC3. It's definitely a bit...different (with the whole pick your command, THEN your target setup), but I'm giving it a fair shake, and I'm pretty impressed with the kind of stuff I can turn out in short amounts of time. Thanks for all the feedback.

@icosahedron: I've already made a decision at the moment, so unless there's a free trial or something for this program, sounds like a no go :-( I am interested in seeing some of the results though, do you have a map that you can post?
