First of all the map is hardly anywhere near to finished.
I did just few things such as: Diplomacy system.(via dialog boxes, untested)
Kick system for the host only.(via dialog boxes also, tested)
Tax system. (tested)
I'm still managing some imports.
Anyway I need ideas for some system or nice and original.
But anything original is welcome. (credits included)
-Update-
The size of the map is 352x352 instead of 256x256(untested)
Some real progress should be expected soon.
And I will need some tips and ideas how to make a good terrain for a very big map. (I'm using Loaderlon Winter + some imports)
-Update 2-
Imported more files.
Current Size: 2.139 Mb
-Update 3-
Places of Power have been added.
Current size 2.357Mb
-Update 4-
All WoW exports have been replaced.
Current size 2.374Mb

How about a Loyalty system?

Like, you put the taxes on 10, and the Loyalty level drops from 8 to 5.

If the Loyalty level is on a certain amount of points:
- You get bonuses if it's high.
- You get bad things like rebellion if it's low.

I didn't mean that unique.

A hero upgrade system? EX: you start out as fellhound then turn into succubus, then a demon gaurd(guy with the cleaver thing), doom gaurd, and lastly pit lord? it doesnt have to be that long but that would make the game kinda interesting i think
 
well i would suggest you use ashenvale terrain. It has good tiles and the (my opinion) best grass or forest floor. Exchange the ranks and the leaves to whatever you need.
Then i mostly use some low-filesize imported doodads and some out of this.
Dont be greedy with enviroment doodads and dont use less than 3 different types. Nice terrain effects are reached by using some animated fogs (linked map).
Nice are "soft" waterfalls and even some puddles.
Use Ashenvale Rain for a weather effect.
Examples out of my maps:

Another nice effect is the usage of triggers for your terrain.
Theres a green shining lake where souls drop out every second using the NagaDeath and UndeadDissipate effect.

I'm still sticking to loaderlon winter since I did't see many maps of that tileset.
And thanks for reminding me of UTM.
