I don`t think its a wise decision to start such a poll right after a new update. Players don`t have a good overall impression then, because then there are quite few maps played.
Anyway, the map cycles are so unbalanced that only the ongoing maps avoid me from playing FH2 its always the same stuff, although there would be enough material to create huge variety map cycles- I think I have played Operation Hyacinth maybe 2 or 3 times in 3 years FH2. But thats another topic.
So here my top 3 maps:

Hurtgen
This map just offers such a fresh game mechanic, that pushing through the forrest to the final epic end fight for Germeter... Maybe the most atmospheric FH2 map, and the last stand at Germeter is so damn thrilling and full of action- amazing.

Operation Goodwood
As already mentioned, I love the variety. And Goodwood offers a whole lot of variety. You can go by foot or tank, into the open field, a village, farm or town, and have fun on every way. The combination of different terraints and arms on Goodwood ist awesome.

Lebisey
I think Lebisey is one of the smallest maps in FH2 and thats what i love: After the first few minutes, the battle goes into the width of the map and there is simply everywhere someting going on: fights in that mansion and the forest around, fights in the town, the church, brits trying to take the Tiger down, snipers in the church- everything going on at once. Action and speed on this map make it to one of my favorites.

May I ask why the artillery was removed? Maybe the US won the fight a bit too often yeah, but now the balance seems to be ******. Our team had won any map before, of course apart from Mareth Line which obviously cant be won by any average allied team at the moment.

Never saw a panther on st lo.

The split ranking is definetly what divides the community. Players on 762 didnt want to start from scratch like everyone else with the official rankings, wich from their pov was smart because they now how a dedicated base of players that have stats for far longer and rarely plays an official server), and those that prefer official rankings (like me) avoid 762. You'd think the non-762 people would just choose a different server than hslan, but really, what other server has active admins?? Also there's the psychological factor, a server needs a critical mass of about 25 players to get filled, and few want to join before that wich makes it hard to get it filled...

You know, when this rift started to begin I suggested to convert the old 762 points to the new ranking system for exactly this reason. Even if it cant be done perfectly, just giving the old 762 player base some kind of reward and then get rid of this whole alternate scoring system would have been soooo much better for the whole community.

Unfortunately, as so often, the community tends to see the detail problems (e.g. why the points cant be converted 1:1, etc, etc) rather than the big picture (a real rift to a anyways small community, which means that quite often I cant play a match on a weekday evening on a ranked (hslan) server) which is a real downturn.

I really encourage the community (especially the devs and 762) to sit down once again and sort this damn issue out.

Exactly what im thinking!

It will be about them needing new devs. Any bets?

I think the idea about modifying the score board isn't too bad. I would do it the same as in RO. Only kills and teamwork points get counted and the death score removed. Players tend to forget about their beautiful K/D in this game and start to help the team even more. I have never seen a guy, who will say something like "Uh, look ad my badass K/D" after he gets adviced to help the team. But in FH2 thats the case from time to time.
What I also don't get is, why the victory - infact the goal of the game - isn't rewarded in any way, if we stick to our ranking systems.

Yes, a basic change of the reward system wouldnt be too bad either. To encourage the players to a more comradely type of playing.

Jagdtigers were used on the late Eastern Front too, for example in the battle of Budapest and elsewhere in Hungary.

No they were not, internet is a dangerous place to gain knownledge on these subjects 

Then tell me your source.  Parts of the sPzJägAbt 512 could have fought in Hungary aswell. I cant find a source to prove this as is cant find a source to disqualify it. I guess the Reich`s administration in late 1944/45 wasn`t the best anymore.

Edit:  (From German panzer webside)

Ein gewisser Oberfeldwebel Heinz Grein wurde von Scherf im Januar 1945 abkommandiert zum Niebelungenwerk. Er sollte halt die Produktion der JT beobachten.

Er übernahm am 29.04.1945 mindestens 9 JT und zog gegen die Russen bei Prinzersdorf.
Er war der 6.SS-PzA unterstellt.

In english:

In January 1945, Staff Sergeant Heinz Grein was assigned by Scherf to the Nibelungenwerk. On April 29th 1945 he took  at least 9 Jagdtigers and fought against the soviets near Prinzersdorf. He was subordinated to the 6th SS-Panzerabteilung.
