Whatever you use for distribution make it easy to use and make sure the price will be 30 euros or so at most.

As much as I adore GoG, Steam is probably the best platform. Impulse and Gamersgate aren't terrible per se, but Steam has so many more users.

As for Steam check out:

Avadon

Spiderweb software have been making quality RPG games for years and their latest is on Steam. I highly recommend it.

I put this here to show that Steam isn't just for games with the latest graphics mindblow or triple A titles.

I hope we have the option for really large maps. I like playing games where it feels like a world instead of an island.

You know Ive done my part for that.
I think you will be quite satisfied. The maximum size map is only possible thru command switches. But its beyond even my lust for large maps. Johan is again wondering why anyone would even want to play on a map so large

Playing a small map can be interesting too. Maybe elysium can be just a small island with strategic or spiritual value, like the Dardanelles or Jerusalem respectively (though this aren't islands, but you know what I mean, right)?

Yes that is already in the game also.
As far as Island; the maps are always water surrounded. So you are always playing with either an island or a continent.

Im sure there will be small map games also (I tend to get outvoted in my love of big maps). But maybe not as much as Dom3s games. There are nations which would rule small maps while other nations would be almost impossible to win with (even more than Dom3 does)

I'm pretty sure "Beholder" name is not available for use without negotiating with Wizards of the Coast.
"They are one of the few classic Dungeons & Dragons monsters that Wizards of the Coast claims as Product Identity.[1]"

I understand it's legal to have an eye-monster that casts spell, as long as you don't call it a Beholder.
