"Horizontal drawer cabinets" (production method) - THIS is why we love this series.
That's awesome! Just add index cards and you can simulate modern-day Germany - at least as far as the public sector is concerned ;D

So much in the screenshots to love!

"Horizontal drawer cabinets" never underestimate the power of a good filing cabinet or other organizing system for making bureaucracy work.

"Unlocks Liberal Party (Party)" yeeeeees

Also glad to see Texas can possibly get a seal on a bedsheet flag.

That Railway description is pretty hefty. Is there any way it could collapse similar unlocks together, e.g., "Unlocks Rail Transportation for 16 buildings" and then you can mouseover for a list?

Rifling should probably be "minie bullet" seeing that rifling was invented in the XVth century(I think) and it was the minie bullet that led to it replacing smooth bore barrels

Thank you. Can we please get an update now about the graphics for the map. This late into development it's a bit concerning with what I've seen.

I am utterly confused by the Russia vs Khazak peace screen. If Russia annexes Kazakhstan, what is the point of Khazak getting all those wargoals?

Also I find the colonisation text a bit off - firstly because it sounds like it would only apply to population colonies, qnd secondly because there is no mention of the "civilising" rhetoric that was big part of how colonisation was justified...

I agree it's pretty confusing. It shouldn't be possible to give a country a bunch of land to entice them to be annexed so I'm hoping it's just an example of a bunch of pressed war goals.

Agreed. Rifling being locked behing Percussion caps is especially bizarre, considering the historical progression was substantially swapped.
