Looks awesome, can't wait!
It is worth noting that it was impossible to create a new terrain type representing "Flooded fields", so as "Jungle" terrain type was not being utilised they modified the artwork and used that.
Unfortunately when you click on such a hex the terrain info box will still say "Jungle", I am sure in the future we will see posts from players who have not read the designers notes asking why there is Jungle terrain in this title.

I have no doubt.
As we know that you cannot make new terrain types, are polders that were shown in the graphical update announcement blog post considered to be fields(?) (i.e., Does 'Field'(?) terrain represent polders [or both polders and regular fields]?)?
