Ogre is a nice looking map. But it is probably best with a larger number of players. For new players, one of the game included maps such as cradle (may have the benefits of not needing to be downloaded) maybe be better.

If Ogre is used with smaller number of players, you'd probably want to institute VPs either static or accumulation method, and a VP victory condition to prevent the game from running on forever. Accumulation method can provide even greater control of game length so might be more useful with this map.

Not to say that large numbers of provinces per player are not fine for some players who may like it. Or for games with an RPG/Scenario element, where there are other goals, victory conditions, and other things going on.
