Information
A few years ago I was in need of some single-tier mountains, and so I made them. Perhaps two years ago, after displaying them in SotW, I promised someone that I would upload them. Today I cleaned them up and transferred them into DoR. Is it ever too late to fulfill a promise? Perhaps, but here they are regardless--for you, Mr. Unknown Person that requested them.

Description
These mountains are relatively self-explanatory, but, be warned, it may be a while before you are comfortable with using them fully. Because they effectively split a tile in half, the correct tile to use is often not immediately evident. Using them by themselves is easy, but I will explain how to connect them to taller mountains below.
For DoR, I have supplied tilesheets for both sandy and grassy terrain. For MZC, I have procured one for grassy terrain and another for layering onto grassy terrain; the tilesheets for MZC are, admittedly, less complete than those for DoR, but will still do the job.
If you look at a side or rear mountain-tile, you will see that it is divided into two tiers (or cake-layers, if you prefer that terminology). To connect these single-tier mountains to a double-tier mountain, you need to take different steps depending on how you want to do it: you can either connect the single-tier mountain to the top cake-layer or to the bottom cake-layer. In the tilesheets for DoR, the mountains on the left connect to the bottom cake-layer and those on the right connect to the top cake-layer. In the tilesheets for MZC, the mountains on the sides connect to the bottom cake-layer and those in the centre connect to the top cake-layer.
In the tilesheets for DoR, under each circle of mountains, you will see two little strands of mountains going down on either side. These will merge one height (bottom cake-layer) with another (top cake-layer). They are not entirely necessary, and I have yet had no need for them, but perhaps someone else will.
You will probably also notice that there are several repeated tiles in the tilesheets for DoR. I tried to arrange the tiles in such a way as to explain precisely how they were used; the repetitions are simply a result of this.
