Another quick question Yabba. One some of the goals you list a provinces name (Barbados, Dadra, Goa etc). I take it we must own these provinces?

York should get a +3 bonus, as it is much more difficult to do!
Will first, second and third place only be decided between york players? Because otherwise i am not even trying york, the 3 points for being first are impossible to achieve as York. I made some slight progress with york after 20 years, while i have united the whole british islands as England after 5.
Heh played a little bit with york finished eating england at 1552 and thought to stay as York but for calais decision you need to be england ;(
Btw nice little tweak to ming....
I'm thinking the time bonus sounds like a better option. Otherwise, if you pick England, you can never be in the 1st/2nd/3rd place positions if a York player completes all of the objectives. So I'm assuming that if we give York a time extension, they would also get the same bonus as a time reduction for tie breaking purposes?
That sounds confusing so let me illustrate with an example. If we give York players 20 extra years to complete the missions, would York players final time be subtracted by 20 years? If a York player won in say 1600 and an England player won in 1600, the York player ought to win that
Anyway just some thoughts. I'm still at work and the day is passsing soooo slowly. Darn you Yabba! (ty for letting me play this over the 3 day weekend next week ).
Bugger. I forgot that York can't pass that decision. It would have been nice to see the Empire coloured mint green for once.
Feel free to load an earlier save as York and continue playing, I'll remove that requirement for york from page 1.
I didn't want to force anybody to do any of the union stuff.
Tweak?
I bet you sneak a peek at your christmas presents before christmas day as well don't you! Thanks!
If you play as York, do you have to stay as them for the whole game or are you allowed to form Great Britain?
It was not a sneak peak, was just thinking about invading china and thinking about looking how much far ahead i am in tech then noticed this funny green colour in tech map in asia
My first day of playing is complete. Went with England to try for everything but the York point.
Insta-dowed 2 Irish minors and annexed them.

Went after the other 2 during year 2. My diplomats where having trouble keeping up with my wars and peace treaties until I annexed Scotland and York a few years in. I started colonizing the Caribbean and the thirteen colonies until France declared war for Calais.

Blockading and a few Naval wins helped get France to a place where they would accept peace. My ally Portugal had a small army in Navarra which pulled France entire army to the south. I sneaked in and quickly sieged Calais and 2 other provinces before France had time to react.
The peace deal isn't the one I accepted. I waited a few days to win the naval battle and it was enough to claim both Picardie and Caux.
If it's possible I'd like to try my hand at this as well.

Also, does the forum software not like screenshots uploaded with imgur?
In terms of placing, I think it has to be based on points first, time second. If a person has gotten all 8 points, their rank should be higher than anyone who got less than the total 8 no matter what the time is.
