So far, you can put me on the fan list for Trinity. Nice work NB.
WRT field spacing and furballs, I actually think furballs have benefitted from further spaced fields. They tend to occur at a nice midpoint between fields and have more verticle diversity - people are higher when they engage and there's action all the way to the ground.
There also seems to be more opportunities for naval conflict than on any other map and for us lovers of blue planes that's a big plus.
My only nitpick, and this is just a visual thing, is there sure are a lot of high mountains without a trace of snow on them. I think I even saw 18K+ peaks with trees all over them. It would be nice to have snowy northern slopes (or southern slopes, I won't be a hemishpere bigot), nothing but snow above 17 or 18K, and no trees above, say 12K.
