Thanks a lot!
We will soon focus on adding some more visual effects to the map, to make it more lively and immersive (attack animations, smoke, explosions, mushroom clouds).
We currently do not plan to add a province view as you know it from Supremacy or Thirty Kingdoms. While its certainly nice for new players, most experienced players will more or less ignore it. We rather want to invest our efforts in areas which have real importance for all players.
