Nelvaan can be connected to the Hoth maps as well. Mapmaker also stated that the 2 Teth maps will be able to connect with each other.
Also, the 2 Muunilists and 2 Christophis fit together nicely.

I believe that U can connect those 2 from the rebel storm starter(the one with the sith lord tombs on the back), because if you notice at one of the ends(the one in the corner surrounded by walls on each side and 1 door to get into) there is a door going out of the map.

Another way we connect maps is to have lifts connected to each other. Our house rule is to end your turn in a lift and next turn come through the connecting lift (we designate them).
For bigger maps we just use a table, throw down a table cloth for a field (green or tan) then throw out terrain pieces. We use an inch for movement.

I agree with the OP. The Hoth Outpost map is in no practical way connectable to the AT-AT maps, and to suggest otherwise is completely ridiculous. It just demonstrates how little attention they pay to playtesting their products.
After that Q&A, I asked publicly for Rob to explain how the AT-AT can maneuver a straight line with the Outpost map in its path. It cannot, and he never replied to the question.

Maps are pretty important to this game (slight understatement), so you'd think they would put some thought into longevity and connectibility.
ps...good to see your name on BlooMilk Boris. (assuming this is Boris_the_Dwarf from WOTC forums. If not, you sure write like him.)
