Napoleonic Europe 1812 - Ver 41/44 [Quenched]

[Kabanellas]

Good to have you back Rask


..I can say that I'm pretty satisfied with the last changes, though I agree that France is a bit hard to hold/make. Which ends up to be a bit of a paradox 'cause you hardly see Napoleon rise in most of these games

..but as we all know it's hard to match gameplay with historical accuracy

Looks fun, can't wait to play it! Might I ask though why Prussia looks like it ate part of the Confederation of the Rhine? I like the Kingdom of Westphalia and the Mecklenburg-Schwerin.

Now that I look at it a little closer it looks like you have a nice boarder around it but the orange color there is misleading to my eyes, maybe change it a little if it really isn't apart of Prussia? =p

[Raskholnikov]

if you read the legend you will see that the two Confederation of the Rhine territories which have the same color as Prussia will give Prussia a bonus if someone controls all of Prussia and both these territories. Same thing with Warsaw. Other countries have similar bonuses (for ex. Austria with Kracow and Illyria, Ottoman Empire with Bassarabia, Kingdom of Naples with Rome and Piedmont etc).
And you can play the map already since it's been released in Beta for a while now. Enjoy!

I don't have any great concerns here; unless there are any voices of dissent in the next hour or so, I'll push this one out...

I've been playing this map a ton lately and I love it. Both for team play and solo it's so complex and balanced. Great work! The main reason I'm posting though is after all the time spent on that map, I just now noticed the signatures in the swords at the bottom--what a nice touch!

[Kabanellas]

I have some questions about this map. It's great, awesome, and everything, and I love playing on it, and I think I've figured out some of the mechanics in it, but I want to be sure I got this right. And since reading through 60 pages of map discussion already got annoying before I was through the first 10 (and it took ages, seriously...) I decided to just put this out there and politely ask the map founders to answer it.


How does the territory distribution work?
I've found that with 2 players, both players get three land battle sites (or at least from my experience... i only started counting them recently). Now I opened a 6-player game on this map and most people get 2, however there's one poor guy that has 1 and one lucky guy that has 3.
Are there fixed rules for this?

[Raskholnikov]

No. It's random distribution. The reason is that no land battle bonuses kick in until you conquer a capital. So the amount of land battles you get to start with gives you no bonuses until you hold a capital. Of course, once you have a capital it matters how many you have, but the opponent has a chance to either take back your capital or take one or more battle sites.

In short: it makes no difference in Round 1 how many land battles each person has. And they are distributed randomly, there is no "fixed rule" for it.
