Europe 1750...

[Chris Szabla]

If Savoie is still open I'd be glad to take it.

But wow, this is obscenely complicated...

[JT3]

Just wondering, are the think black lines the national boundries, or are the different colors the borders?

[Napoleon Bonaparte]

It may seem complicated but it is easy once u get past the intitial stuff

[General_BT]

The thick black lines are jsut provincial boundaries, the different colors (in terms of one region has lots of blue, etc.) are the different nations. The regions that have two colors (the national color and a green) are forests, which can affect a battle...

You may also like to know that after slaving for the past three hours, I have two colonial maps done.... India and the Americas...

India Map

Americas Map

Four new nations that can be played have been added in India...

1.) Moghul Empire - light green... Teh remnants of the empire that only 100 years before controlled almost the entire subcontinent

2.) Maratha COnfederacy - dark green ... Allies of teh British IRL, the Maratha's are the up and coming power of India

3.) Mysore - brownish... The empire that broke the back of teh Moghuls earlier in the century, now on teh wane because of Maratha pressure.

4.) Savafid Persia - Dominant Power in the Iranian Plateau since the 1500s... now at its peak of power

dang! It looks like England and spain and France will have even a larger advantage! O well. How would a non colony nation go about getting some land?

[hacksaw]

hey do the indian nations have ports capable of ship building? If so i will switch to the dark green country. Also does Sweden have any leaders. I asked ,but have not got a reply yet. Also there is land in sweden that is white. I assume that i do have this land is that correct.

[Mao]

Any thoughts on the pirates and "treasure ship" escorts?

[General_BT]

You do have pirates... well nationally sanctioned pirates in the privateers...

Realy pirates are left to the events man, moi.

I'm not completely finished with the map... the Marathas (dark green) probably do have a port at Cambay and another at Vizagaptam... but they won't be large ports... maybe Cmabay would be a 50 at most...

To go about overseas expansion... build a transport, load a corps on it, and note all the open land in India for instance... take some...

Your biggest problem is you have to defend it...

maybe we should jsut make this a world-wide affair, with interlinking maps...

[Mao]

Hey, another suggestion, if we get enough players, perhaps we could get rebels in colonies to fight the motherland...but if we have enough players.

[hacksaw]

I hope Maratha Confederacy has leaders. If so i will take it. Also its regulars are just as strong as the average european nations right. are there any restrictons on india. I would like to knwo before i decide.

Alright, I am switching my claim from Portugal to all Native Americans East of the Missisipi, BT said I could do this on ICQ.

[PolarisGL]

FRANCE = $3,170
::: Europe: $2,100
::: Americas: $1,060
::: India: $40

: 30% * 3,170 = 951.
::: Total Army budget: $350
::: Total Navy Budget: $105.5
::: Total Military Budget: $455.5

:::: $951 - 455.5 = $495.5 per turn


Which is how much money I get PER TURN, which I am assuming is three months?

I also have no clue how to do my military.
Are we dividing them into Army groups, armies, with corps (no divisions specified) with how many troops each? Where to leaders go, exactly? To each army, but what if you do not have enough leaders? Please explain.
