I'll try doing that from now on, would make things more convinent for the public instead of trying to reach page like... 40 or something and trying to find a one line post containing the new download link..
HOWEVER, in my opinion, the mod is not ready for a new release, it won't be until I finish all the land doctrines.. The naval doctrines have been keeping me up at night, I have no idea of how Pre 18th century naval warfare really worked, let alone how it worked for The Asian nations for instance.. But I will ask you this, should Naval doctrines also be dived up between continents, or should It just be the same for everyone... If I make it the same for everyone, them, I'll have to give the ships different weapons or attachments for it it to have any sense of realism...

Would any of you guys be willing to help A good friend out on Country colors?... I'm sorry to say it, but the default colors of nations in the E3 Map are.. Rather bland and dull.. And I think a mod of this scale needs a bunch of new or modified nation colors... I've tried, but they their look cartoonish or ghostly in appearance, so I've stopped trying.. Not my forte Obviously. I am only asking all of you for help because I've tried and failed many times at this..
Here attached is the colourscales file from the putin mod. I tried it on your mod and it looks better. See what you think?
I've had to attach it as a text file, just make it a .csv file to use it.
This might help

Those are what I have in actual units by now.... Is this a decent list?
Also, Thank you Nova for the CSV color scale file, it should really help a lot. : )
It looks like you went about 250 years back in time with the Putin mod!
I was going to show pictures of the map as it stands at the moment in a later update, but I do believe these color scales look so awesome, they deserve to be seen as quickly as humanly possible.. Thus, My dear contributors and fans of the mod, I have you a unoffical update.. A download link will still come later however, I don't feel it worthy to release this thing until all the main foundation stones for it are created, all naval, land doctrines, Infantry, naval, and economic tech etc.

Do you think Great Britain should be that red?... And why does the map feel like it was just ripped from EU4 now?.. 
I agree. The colours are clear but not too loud.

I made France so dark blue to represent the fact the Monarchy is still in power... Monarchist and Republican and perhaps even a communist France will have different tags. France is one of nations that like The U08 tag, Totally changes it's mentality with a shift in Goverment.. So like Germany has a communist, monarchist-democratic and nazi tag..France may be the same, good idea?
Revolutionary France may be a vivid light blue, perhaps in a way more sinister looking than it's previous dark, elegant blue. I'm not sure what color a communist France would be.
Korsteeni,what color do you think a French commune tag would be?

And Now Ladies and gentlemen, I present to You, The Mod as it currently stands.
https://www.mediafire.com/?f9gyfirizo7k9v0
You may Now Give it any modifications or anything of your own, just show a picture of your work and ill decide if it should be included in the final product or not, this is Indeed a public Project after all.
*Big Download*
I would show pictures of it, but I think that I basically already have..
*Biggest bits of change*
1. Very different country colors, as made very clear by the previous pictures shown.
2. Many new land and naval doctrines techs created.
3. 90 percent of nations have at least a head of Government and state.
4.Over 10 new nations
5. German states given their own historical flags.
6. The Habsburg empire is not fractured.
7. IC changes.
8. New Opening theme.
Naval doctrines virtually finished, they now go up to 1792, not too much longer until 1848... We just need to get Unit models design to reach the end of the naval doctrine thing, we can also work on the development of infantry land doctrines and such until 1848.. Which to me is a possible end date for classical Europe.. If 1815 or 1822 wasn't.
9. MANY new naval units, they have the same stations as the first unit of their class sadly, but we can edit them according, with the help of the naval people and experts of this forum about historical warships trends and weaknesses.
10. Tech tree Beginning to be redesigned, as in it's beginning to show changes in other words.
Keep in mind most of these things I've done by.. Myself... I hope that tells you how dedicated I am to my work.
My gosh is this Job is stressful, I am literally worrying about When sloop of war Designs should end in darkest hour!... Never did I think I would ever have that in my mind! But I Know whole heartingly, that someday.. All Of this pain and suffering will be worth it...

Congratulations on your work and for continuing to get guys contributlng as they do.
Modding can be enjoyable and its creativity a personal rewarding experience, but just remember to take a break, leave the house, go for a walk in the sunshine... I'm speaking from experience here.

(Indeed and thankfully, that's what I'm doing so far... I even tend to accident procrastinate... By the way, do you have any opinions of your own Nova about this new update?...
