Box preview on main Paradox page!

[unmerged(18249)]

I dont like the cover. Specialy the colour and those framed pictures. Its a bit to simplistic. It should be ONE picture with several motives merged into each other, some faded.

Wilhelm II was neglectible. If they wanted to show some Prussian, then BISMARCK would be the man. Also including some Russian Czar would be better then the Statue of Liberty. I would have chosen a picture of a 19th century factory and workers melting iron. In the background as fading image confederate soldiers then mixed in a picture of Bismarck and Metternich.

Oh well - its just a box - as long as the game is better then the cover!

Well America's a huge market, so some never heard of Czar wouldnt go down so well IMO...

I would have missed off the statue of liberty and the train and put on 2 more important people. Yeah I agree with the Bismark and Wilhem 2, Wilhem was a disaster.

To get the game to sell more copies in the US

Put a Swaztika and Hitler on it and every 14 year old kid will want it.

Instead of the statue if they wanted something american why not Lincoln.

Hell with that, how about that hot chick on the upper left hand corner Shes naked under that toga you know.... (She's French).

Actually thats a Bronze Statue.

 

[HisMajestyBOB]

Personally I'd have one inanimate object and one person on the right, then flip on the left, so the two people would be diagonal, and objects diagonal, but that's just me. The red background is pretty cool, with the gold frames

Each of the four pictures at the side represents a concept thats vitally important for the 19th century, and they are fairly good representatives for those..

Free spot into beta for first one that figures it all out

Train == industrialization/economic dev
Statue == Political Freedom/Enfranchisment of the masses
Chuckie == scientific advancement
Willy (?) == militarism and nationalism? ethnic unification? [if its Willy is certianly is NOT diplomacy!]

 

[Alexandru H.]

I have to say that it's a pretty nice cover...excellent use of colors

As for Wilhelm II, he is not only a symbol of the new German state but also one of the greatest imperialists the world has ever seen and the man that counted most in the 1895-1918 politics

 

[Gaute65]

Liberty statue = Democracy

Train =Industrializing

Darwin= Science,

Wilhelm II = Military

 

[Ape]

...or
Upper left: Democracy
Upper Right (Marx): Communism
Lower Left: Capitalism
Lower Right: Imperialism

 

[unmerged(4640)]

My guesses:

Lady Liberty = democrasation, parlaimentarianism...something like that...spelling count?

German dude = nationalism, imperialism, militarism

Train = industrialisation, making the world get more 'connected'

Chuck Darwin = modernisation of thought...getting rid of old ideas for science, etc....or just 'Monkeys'

Eh, oh well.
