Good find. So that is the map then - I like it although cities are freakin' HUGE! I do like that the terrain is differentiated clearly enough that you can indeed tell what type of terrain you'll be fighting on. If that works as planned that will be excellent as now you can position yourself on the Campaign map to use terrain to your advantage. In prior games it was more than a bit of a crap shoot as to where the opposing forces would end up being placed.

Oh and one minor nit from the later games addressed = the army/navy banner shows the relative army/navy numbers again and don't have that ugly "power bar" attached to it.
