Excellent Online Guide - Very Detailed and Helpful

**Ragga** · March 15, 2009, 06:05 PM

I'm sure this may have been already posted, but I have gone through most of it and there are many aspects which are more clearly explained than from the game manual or from the advisors in the game.

More helpful than any other guide yet...

I will have a look, thanks for posting.

Edit: Looks very good, I posted a few suggestions for him.

That's a nice find. Not a bad guide at all.

The Naval Battles section could've been more extensive... but otherwise it looks like a pretty good read, thanks!

+rep.

I thought that the "hints or tips" that he provides at the end were very useful... especially the Naval one.

Thanks for all the praise! I'm glad that people find it helpful, I was afraid that I was wasting my time.

Ministers can sit for a maximum of 2 terms, which means 20 turns. After that, they can not be reelected,

never experienced anything like that in all those 50 years of my GC under constitutional monarchy.. The only way my ministers left cabinet were either being fired or dieing.

When you replenish your armies with the "+" button, it will be completed in two turns if you don't move it around and if you have a land route open to a friendly territory.

this statement is partially wrong. It does not matter whether u have or have not route to friendly territory, or whether your army moves. You can always replenish and it always takes two turns. U can replenish even when army on ship I think.

Thanks for pointing those out to me, you're totally right on both points, except the replenishment on ships. I am 99,99% sure that that doesn't work, I'll have to check in-game. I wrote those in the beginning when I thought that that was how it worked. They have been corrected now.

No matter how much I read through the damned thing searching for errors I never get them all.

well, not sure if u can initiate replenishment of troops when they are on ship already, but if you order replenishment, and then board them on ship, they will replenish just fine.
