Number of maps
The Eastern Front was huge, so I think we can expect a few more maps than in Verdun. However, given that Prussia and Poland seem to have only 1 map, I think we need a few more. There should be 2 or 3 maps per region, not just one like Verdun. Why? Firstly, the Eastern Front was much larger than the Western Front, and thus the regions covered in game are huge(Poland and East Prussia, for example). Secondly, the Eastern Front was more diverse than the Western Front, which was mostly fought between trenches(many interesting tactics and strategics evolved during the war in the West, but almost all to do with trenches). Thus, by having more than 1 map per region we can see the different areas fought over in the region. Finally, the players will eventually memorise the maps and camping spots, so having more maps makes that process take longer.

Not likely to get one, outside of wait for the news.

While the front did cover larger areas it wasn't that diverse, these areas saw large swings due to the scale of the region and the low infrastructure. 3 maps per region of fields with a small village in a different part wont feel that different or unique and wont take long to memorise still.

The eastern front is larger than the Western Frotn - only 200 km.
Eastern Front long rows of trenches
The Eastern Front is not Sibir.
unfortunately Tannenberg does not look like the Eastern Front - 1915-1917

Didn't the eastern front also have lots of marshland that people would get stuck in? Would be interesting to see that implemented kind of like Flanders.

This is a good point. I think the battle of "Tannenberg" was mainly in this kind of area. What influenced the Russian army a lot.
