A look back in time! On the table two years ago: A Most Fearful Sacrifice, from Flying Pig Games. Definitely a contender for the most beautiful map in wargaming. :)

What other board game maps are so good?

Clever ideas in board gaming. The tabbed marker sits under the unit, making the unit's status clear without covering the unit itself. Brilliant!
