Great concept, great map. It looks and feels like a huge global map, and it is, but it sure doesn't play like one. Much like the Strategic map, the large spaces excluded for (in this case) economic reasons give the rest of the world a much quicker flow. Africa and South America are relatively small, while Japan dwarfs the Middle East and India.

It's not so much that a different strategy is required here, just that players must discard their ingrained understanding of how far away (in terms of number of territories) places are from each other.

Probably my favourite map, unlike other world maps there aren't stupid territories that connect to like 15 others. Great idea, and flawless execution imo, I wish other maps like this could be made. Excellent map for large games
