Hey Adam,
did you take a look at the examples reported in this page https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/icon.shtml <https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/icon.shtml> ?
ICON also uses an unstructured grid. 
Stupid question: remapping everything with CDO before plotting it’s not what you want, right? I always do that since NCL it is not capable to handle unstructured grid in every situation (like vector plots).
Cheers

And what if I want to plot grid lines on every other node (not that the data arrays have one dimension for the horizontal dimension, containing all the tiles of the sphere --this is a global model)
