hi jimmer,

i am planning to use the latest available version when we are about to start so most likely 1.05.05.
i have no idea how we handle this special bug. is there something like a workaround proposal?

bye

Well, we should discuss it. I suspect some kind of tradeoff will be required, and we might have to figure it out as it happens (it may not happen EVERY time to all players). We probably just need to watch it so we make sure nobody gains an advantage through it (like, a PP is gained for taking control and not lost when control is lost).

Actually I have found that although you can not directly set up Finland (click on finland then corps counters - as they do not have any) You CAN click on Sweeden and get the corps then set them up IN Finland - and you can garrison them too. I have also been able as France controlling vs Russia, set up depot in Finland with French leader assigned to keep Russia out for lapse of war (which worked).

So it can be worked around I assume Denmark also (but who would only want to take Norway??? ) I am more concerned with the conquering then trying to Free but only getting the one primary province (Naples/Sweeden/Denmark) and not the previoulsy conquered provences with them.

Hope this helped..

Yeah, that helps OD. I'll try this tonight.
 
One thing though: The French leader is not used in such situations. He can be present, but if you watch the battle, he won't be used. The only way to use one is to be at war with Russia.
 
EXCEPTION: In the old EiA boardgame, where Bernadotte could become a Swedish leader, Bernadotte COULD be used in such a situation, assuming Sweden somehow managed to become neutral.
