Confederation of the Rhine Map Suggestion

Post by Grapeshot Bob »

A suggestion for the Confederation of the Rhine.

The states that can comprise Poland have a small "P" on them.

Could the states that can make up the Confederation of the Rine have a "R" or some other indication on them as well?

Could we do this for all potential kingdoms?

I think its done this way cause Poland is an exception in the sense that its the only "Political Combination" that involves whats concidered "major power national provinces" also in the boardgame if i remember right there are some provinces that could be part of more than one "Political Combination" many of these "Political Combinations" are not yet in the game.

I don't see what harm it could cause by having a small indicator on all the states that could be formed into potential kingdoms.  A popup message at the start of a player's Economic Phase if conditions are met for creating a kingdom would be a helpful reminder.

No real harm unless matrix intend to release other campaigns for EiANW with different political combinations using the same MAP then it might cause confusion. A message, not necissarily a pop up though, would be appropriate. Maybe it should be added to the National Screen.

We'll have to see if the editor will allow for customization of potential kingdoms.  I suspect the rules for creating kingdoms are hardcoded, but maybe not.  For possible pre-Napoleonic and post-Napoleonic campaigns, different political combinations would need to be implemented somehow.  The bitmap maps are easily editable anyway and we can add small indicators ourselves, and for custom campaigns there may be other edits a modder would want to make.

The editor design does not encompass kingdom creation although I like the idea! Oh well! Now more work :-)
Thank you
