Straits/Crossings

[unmerged(1852)]

Hey Paradox people, when you redraw the map for EU2, can you indicate visually where there are straits that can be crossed without ships? I've had the game for months and I'm still finding new ones.

I built a huge fleet and fought a tooth-and-nail naval battle to gain control of the Aegean Sea, only to find out that I could have just walked to the Cyclades.

I'm not sure they will re draw the map that much.
But, hey, I just find out before I start the war, would work for you too.

Ohhh, this burned me up as the Ventians the first time. I was all naval power built up ready snuff out any Turkish ships and the SOB's walked over the Cyclades.

Prolly because you never played Venice?

Bloomin' Danes.

I captured Jutland then pulled forces out to go fight those French bastards...what happens? The Danes walk from Copenhagen to Jutland. Nevermind that they are blockaded.

Put a list of them in the manual (assuming we'll get a manual and not just another history book )

Don't clog up the map by showing them all.

There are graphics where the straits are.

Small tiny islands... Looks like 3 flying saucers or so

 

[Vulture]

Azores are also three tiny islands, I don't think you can walk from Lissabon to the Azores

Oh, are the flying saucers still present in EU2?

 

[unmerged(592)]

No because in 1419 the aliens had not developed tech level 4989 that allows space travel. Thus there are no aliens before 1492.

Finished 1 GC and 2 IGC's as them.

One of my favourites.

Gsus can.

 

[unmerged(3465)]

Yeah, but He wasn't anywhere near the Azores during the period.

 

[Rex Francorum]

We are those damned flying saucer in EU?

You shouldn't be able to walk to an island anyway-even if you do have flying saucers!
