I agree with your assessment: map too big, some stuff still a little unbalanced (like growth scale).
Interest in the game for the remaining players seems high still. I have taken over Ctis, Huz now controls Vanheim.
It is a LOT of work, I admit. I do not spend more than half an hour - 45 minutes on my turns just so as to stay sane..
