Another great one, Graham!

Question:
You seemed to be getting an army tech level every year... How many levels are there? It wouldn't be much fun to max out research by 1650. :)

Question:
Do you believe that your incredible defense actions were the result of bugs, or did MW have some hidden defense statistic? Perhaps other factors were involved (terrain, morale, plain old luck)?

>Btw, were the Spanish Forces led by Doomie???

Fear not Marc; if I had been king of Spain the Dutch could have raised a million pitchfork wielding scum and still lost. ;)

But, seriously it seems like a good solution that the Dutch rebel in such force. It should still be possible to surpress the uprising if you have built some forts and maintain strong garrisons. No matter that half a million rebs is a tad unrealistic; it's a lot better than scripted independence.

Btw, does the population of a province decrease in proportion to the number of rebels?
