Greetings everyone

Yes I admit, I still play Empire: Total War in 2021.
And yes I must confess, I still like to tinker with ESFEditor 1.4.5.

So I share with you, my startpos-mod:

The UNITED PROVINCES (The Netherlands) as a CONSTITUTIONAL MONARCHY with the region of FLANDERS already in their possession. Nothing more, nothing less. A lite mod, aimed at the Dutchies and Flemings here (or anyone else) that would like to play as "het Verenigde Koninkrijk der Nederlanden" (the United Kingdom of the Netherlands).

Hijs de zeilen, alle hens aan dek!

Installation:
- Download and extract the file "Dutch_Monarchy_startpos.esf"
- Place the file "Dutch_Monarchy_startpos.esf" in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Empire Total War\data\campaigns\main"
- Preferably make a back-up of the already existing and thus original "startpos.esf", so cut/copy or drag it somewhere else
- Rename the file "Dutch_Monarchy_startpos.esf" as plain "startpos.esf"
- Start Empire: Total War and have fun!
