Thanks for all your feedback!
Rivers: Yes, I will omit the small ones.
Villages: I plan ca. 20 additional ones. The biggest problem is to get them into the map w/o producing errors in the ingame-map or other affcetd files... I have developed an idea on how to do that, but not tested yet :o
Buildings: That's what I thought already.
Low density: No, but I can again do the additional online maps.
Re 3D-models: negative - don't know how to do that.
Re "Winter map": I try to do that also, should not be so much work.
I may post some pics later.

b) More villages are always nice to fly over, but a lot of work to make each one look different.
c) Well, I don't know the area but if isolated buildings or groups of trees are a feature of the area then it will add a lot to immersion. The main FPS issues are in large built up areas or industrial areas. These isolated features have little impact on the way the game performs but add a lot of visual interest.
Many users still struggle to run the larger maps with old PC's. It may be useful to release a low density version of the map as well as the high density version.
