BUG FIXED IN 1.02 check before you start a colonial war

check before you start a colonial war

check out before you start a colonial war,

I was Poland and already managed to build a small colonial empire in central Africa. Later on (the map was still a puzzle between France-UK-USA), I started a colonial war against the USA. The UK joined the USA and France didn't intervene,

ok, I conquered all the claimed colonies and meanwhile traded some of them with France so I could claim the colonies.

Now i signed white peace with UK and want to be at peace with the USA because I'm satisfied - for now,

But then it all comes very clear = I can't invade the bordering US African provinces! They are not colonies anymore! They are not invade-able,

they are full of yankees and African minor!

Altough it seems the immigration engine has done overtime for the USA and have had downtime for the Polisch, again not one Polisch did move to Africa, but millions of yankees moved from USA to Africa ???

The thing i'm pointing at is that during a colonial war, an invasion of a state should be possible when there is a land connection,

otherwise the USA can attack me, but I can't attack the USA! The same line to cross for both troops,

I hope this can be implemented, and it spoils the game because I took that many colonies from them, now I have to give them back to make peace because I can't cross the same line they are crossing,

The thing is the yankee assimilation factor where a all african minor and dixie cultured pop are changed to yankee in a very short time. This creates many problems as they get colony in african a and asia becuase everyone becomes yanks.

ImHO this need to a least exlude some more cultures fromt eh assimilation like other africans asians and spainish who never were quite assimilated in teh same fashion europeans were

That africa minor culture the USA has is a nightmare when they colonize africa. They can build factories in a lot of the states there.

I just add african minor to my culture too, or add arabic. Fair is fair.

Isn't this bug of sorts being fixed in 1.02?

I agree with you guys about the state cultures,

but my proposition was

"colonial wars should include the attack of non colonial provinces (normal ones off course) when they border colonies by land connection"

It's a spoiler that the USA can invade my province and I can't invade theirs and there simply a line on the map,

perhaps leaving the option to "declare full war" also solves this,

I think it's a bug that you can't retaliate! Perhaps going to full war status should be more elegant considered the game engine,

but now it's not possible!!! I've to give everything back to the yanks and I'm better!

i think it's a bug, or at least a most needed upgrade, perhaps it should be moved to bug forum?

We'll give the bug forum a chance, then.

Allowing the war to be upgraded would be nicest IMHO.

And the culture of slaves in the Americas should probably be changed from Africa Minor, when Liberia was founded as a refuge for released slaves there was plenty of tension between the returning slaves and the local population, granting them the same culture would be incorrect IMHO.
