Neauchatel had sort of a double role - but it was more of a Prussian principality at the time, AFAIK.

Map is as good as finished, finally

What do you think of using this image for the General Estates and National Assembly event which will beginn ther revolution? It's of the National Assembly's Ballhouse Oath.

The map looks great, but shouldn't French Louisiana be there? i'm sure it must have been around that time....oh wait, in 1762 what then was French Louisiana was owned by the Spanish from 1762-1800, in 1800 there was a secret treaty to give this land back to France. it wa scalled the treaty of San Ildelfonso. The French only had it for 3 years, when they sold it to the USA. Also the Americans bought Florida from Spain in 1819, this could a good event....
Also, for maps, check out on google, type in French Louisiana, and go to images, you'll find a map of that territory, when it was owned by the Spanish and then by the French, Hope this can be of help!
EDIT : After Spain gives back Louisiana, the Spanish part of N.America should have the same border as Mexico in the Grand Campaign! But including Texas.

Het San Martin,just 1 question.... what were the Brits doing in Argentina anyway? Thanks for the timeline info!sanmartin said:
I really, really have no idea. But hey, it IS Argentina (besides, what better way of pissing off Sapin is there than taking their best colony?)
Kaiser Franz said:
very good indeed. but some very important events are missing : like the continental blocus, the pacification of france by napoleon, his marriage with the daughter of the emperor of Austria because the attempt with the Tsar sister (?) failed, also the concordat, the creation of the Banque de France (which restore the economy) and the Franc Germinal
for the leaders since the time frame is 1770-1836 I think that it will be a good idea to put Lafayette, Moreau and others in there.
so how's the work is going to be split.
you sure don't want one men to do it? it's a really complicated time frame with a lot of events to script.
Dist
ps : if you want i will be able to help but not before october.
I certainly don't want to do it alone! I can't even decide what the effects of the revolution events should be... I was thinking something like this:
20. June: "The General Estates and the National Assembly"
Effect: Change to ConMon, Parliametarism and One-Party; increase consciousness for reactionary and conservative; decrease for all others. Loose a lot of prestige. Change ruling party to "La Constituante". Policies? Ideology?
14. July: "The Storming of the Bastille"
Effect: Army mutinys, revolts all over the country, manpower set to zero. Life rating in Paris temporarily reduced.
1. August (?): "Lafayette creates the National Guard"
Effect: receive some irregular divisions, 20 Leadership points.
5. August: "Abolishment of the Feudal Order"
Effect: decrease consciousness and militancy for capitalists and clerks, increase for Aristocrats and priests.
26. August: "Declaration of the basic Human Rights"
Effect: As above, but for liberals and reactionaries.
10. Octobre: "Confiscation of Church and Crown Property"
Effect: Get some money, militancy for Aristocrats and priests as well as reactionaries upped.
And that's just for 1789...

I can work on Consulate and the Empire ( I studied this year) if you want. I know a bit about the rest of europe policies and i have in mind some chain of events.

179? : buy Corsica from genoa
10 november 1799 : Brumaire coup d'etat. A: it works - change the governement ideology to Order B : It fails, napoleon his hunged and a new terror happen (rise militancy, lower tax efficiency -?), sleep all the Napoleon events.
15 december 1799 : VIII year Constitution A: Dictatorship, Censured Press, wealth suffrage and one party system. the date of the event can be discuss cause it was only ratified by the people the 28 february even if it was applied since the 15.
19 january 1800 : Vendean pacification. Lower Mil in the West.
13 february 1800 : Creation of the banque de France. A: raised tax efficiency, for everyone and lower Mil for Capitalist.
17 february 1800 : Creation of the Prefet : Lower mil or revolt risk in all the country.
24 december 1800 : The Infernal Machine A. Napoleon survives B. Napoleon Dies
7 february 1801 : creation of special courts. A. South Pacification Lower Mil in th South.
9 february 1801 : Luneville peace : if at war with Austria. A. Yes : peace, increase a bit relation. B. No : war goes on
25 march 1802 : Amiens Peace : A. Yes : peace with UK. B. No war goes on
18 april 1802 : Concordat - the religious peace A. lower militancy for everyone (at this point France should be revolt risk free)
? : the letter from Louis xVIII : A. rebufe the prick : napoleon stays in power B. Accept : Louis XVIII King of france, ConMon or Mon. sleeps Napoleons event.
That's all for the moment folks. I will think a bit more about it.

For now historical... that's difficult enough . Really decisive events could have choices, though.
