Others may differ, but I agree with an earlier comment that the borders are difficult to read, making it tough to tell if you've got a province under control for the bonus. Trying to compare the board to the map in order to figure this out is tough too as the board does not look as clear as the map, especially during game play with opponents next to each other.
According to the gameplay of this board i'd say it's on the better side of average. But the graphics lower my rating some. The flag in the background is not very pleasing to the eye and the cards don't look very good ether. But it's a fair board for sure!
Should have some type of guide telling which areas are what and how much the group of areas is worth, still a fun board to play on, better for more players.
