RE: How do I stop the flags waving?

<t> <br/>
This game is long in the tooth but I still drag it out and play it periodically...as I am doing this month.<br/>
<br/>
To your questions:<br/>

1) Flag waving may annoy you but it's a feature, not intended to be a distraction. Not much to say about this other than ignore it, or ...

Also - as Terje and I discussed in his PBeM game, with sufficient points available one can literally strip a Nation of all it's military Commanders via the Surrender terms and using the "Remove General" clause. Terje removed 7! Austrian Generals with one Treaty. If his allies were on the ...

RE: Do you hear the people sing?!

<t> <br/>
This post is in relation to the previous page, where you removed numerous Austrian Commanders via a Peace treaty.<br/>
<br/>
Wonder if that is something that should be tweaked in the game to prevent...maybe only 1 General can be removed per Treaty. Heck, if your Allies followed suit ...

Assuming you are dealing with the 1805 scenario - I play Russia a lot (hence the Avatar name).<br/>

One thing I do is - very first turn - offer England a Treaty that has them sending me 10% of their treasury as "Reparations" - actually this is a Subsidy but there is no treaty ...

Was wondering what the chances were of converting France into a major naval power that can defeat the British in the 1805 scenario? If not this one, would I need to begin at an earlier date, which year? Also, what steps should I take to ...

RE: Artillery

<t> In the game rules or appendix somewhere, they mention that a typical Art unit in CoG:EE is about 100 guns. It's abstracted of course, just as 10,000 troops doesn't actually translate to 10,000 infantry (or Cavalry). <br/>

I've had concerns about the devastating power of Art as well. If ...
