Take a look at my post from last week's update. It shows screens from the Igromir release which are very close to what some of us are looking for I think.

Bear in mind that this is just 4 months prior to release and the map looked very different. Raises a question as to why it was changed at last minute and whether it will be changed BACK later?

(As a bonus I suspect there could also be a big performance boost by reducing the number of trees)
