I think the GC map in NTW should have been the same as the European theater map in ETW, the reason (besides wanting more factions to conquer) being that if we had access to northern Africa and the middle east then all of the seasons would have a strategic use on the campaign map.
For example in Russia and Northern Europe during winter there is winter attrition but we are missing the summer heat attrition. This of course would be in effect in Northern Africa and the middle east.
So in one GC we would have the full range of weather and corresponding attrition
Better to conquest during the summer in Russia and the winter in Africa/Middle East...
Thoughts?
