    Default Strange Moments in ETW History...

    This is not to talk about the NEGATIVES...
    There are 100's of threads for that...

    I want to here some STRANGE happens that happen in game...

    Like in my Brittish Campain, the United States emerged in 1702...

    And... Later...
    I found myself thinking things like...
    "I must CRUSH the Americans..."
    "Destroy Boston"
    "Damm Rebel Scum!!!"


    And I am the most patriotic american i know...
    Kinda hurt me inside...

    Watching Ireland take America and the British Isles was pretty weird. I was playing as Prussia and I gained control of Ireland and allowed them to rebel. I gave them a colony in America, as I could no longer divert attention to it. They took a good big chunk of America and the British Isles. Together we ruled the world.

    The starngest moment for me.....hmm..Playing Britain, I was defending the colonies from cherokee invasion. The cherokee had taken Boston and when I liberated it, even though there were still other protectorate colonial territories, it didnt rebel as cherokee or colonial. Its last owner was cherokee, complete with native lodge government building, yet it rebelled as Royal American then that rebel army took New York and it became the USA but just New York, after the royal american Army had moved out and back into the field, New York rebelled against the Royal Americans and a USA stack was spawned there, so I had at that point a Royal American, British Colonial American, Independent US American and my British forces stacks all on the map in a small area at the same time not to mention the Cherokee.

    It wouldn't be that bad if I wrote an epic story about it, but I only wrote three sentences.

    With the Marathas I united India and then promptly invaded England.

    Thought I'd cut the middle man out of my tea export business-

    Also, England has like 10 full stacks in it (because they can't go anywhere), so it was a tough nut to crack.

    From my experience you can't rename cities, and if you can please tell me how, I would really like to know. It was a much overlooked feature in MTW2 and I missed it.

    Oh crap you're right- I just took for granted that it was still possible... that's disappointing. Serves me right for saying that before trying it though

    I've seen these guys do the same. They seem to be the most aggressive faction in North America.
