Do Things To Countries

[Radical Rat]

I vote Sweden

Research culture, raise taxes on the rich, and lower taxes on the poor.

[Radical Rat]

This is how civ looks huh

Oh no, this game seems wildly different from Civ

[Radical Rat]

Which countries qualify as Great Powers?

[Radical Rat]

Also I must say, I expected the rich folks to be... Well, richer.

[Radical Rat]

I see.
I'll nominate France as our Great Ally, and propose we begin preparations to prevent the rise of Germany.

Regrettably, we should also probably raise taxes on the poor a bit, to give us more economic flexibility in the years to come.

[Radical Rat]

Texas is a bit bigger than I remember

[Radical Rat]

Pssssst. Zulfy.

Updaaaaate

[Radical Rat]

Oh no worries! I thought you just forgot, no need to rush if you're ill

[Radical Rat]

Greece seems to be pretty far away from us. How difficult would it be to support their territorial claims from Scandinavia?

As for policy, let's move to a Censored Press. The other freedoms look like they might interfere with our economy, which means they should probably wait until we're super extra rich

I think Spain could be a good target to rumble with if we can find the right opportunity. Wait for them to send their main forces elsewhere and swoop in before they get back. Though I'm also not certain exactly how much control you have over tactics and such in this game so it may not be viable.

Creating/Controlling the Panama Canal sounds like it'd be an excellent boon for us, so put my vote down for colonizing that area.

In any conflict regarding Prussia, I'd like to side with whoever is not Prussia.

The Ottomans could be a solid ally for now, but I worry about what happens if they fall apart later. Though if I'm reading this properly they've recovered from their Sick Man bit?

I'd also like to try setting up spheres of influence in the Americas. Get those exotic resources coming in.

[Radical Rat]

Hmmm...

What can we do to help keep King Louie around?

[Radical Rat]

Oh shit, I thought I'd already responded. Sorry about that.

This is a super neat concept though. Perhaps part of the problem drawing a crowd lies in the complexity of the game, and the inability of the audience to browse through the menus on our own.
Civilization may work for this purpose a bit better, with you handling most of the unit management and direct orders while the thread is responsible for research/policies/production/etc., city specializations, and the overall strategy in wars.

But Civ is also a very different game than Victoria seems to be so idk.

[Radical Rat]

Well it's a Mish Mash game I'd certainly sign up for.
