I shouldn't probably be considered a reliable source as I had the luck of seeing this map come to life, which makes me love her even more.
Yet, I think there are plenty of indisputable qualities in this beauty: first of all, it's visually stunning! The artwork is fun and kinda reminds me of my childhood playing Vulcan Island (a cheesy 90s boardgame); but also check those shadows in the sea: the design and the overall colors deliver you a true sense of being there fighting the waves!
Secondly, it's not the usual map: you have an hexagon layout on top of an ocean map, which we rarely sea around; honestly it's refreshing!
Thirdly, it's a courageous map because it tries to experiment and innovate: I understand many might have felt a bit irked by the reverse INSS-like bonus system, but it can be changed in the settings and really, it pushes you to strategize in a different way.
Check this map out! It's a must play!
