    Technology:
    You can build a functional rail (unlike Great Britain) if you research it.
    Could you please clarify this? Is this saying anyone can invent it first instead of Britain, or that Britain cannot invent railways?
    Being better than the worst does not inherently make you good. But being better than the rest lets you brag.

    I think the Great Britain thing was a joke (as in British Rail is not functional).
    On a different matter, the Knights of St John are a non-playable faction who "sit quietly on Malta unless you choose to invade".

    Of course: Some say, Britain does not have a proper railway ...

    It's not clear for now, if you can invent railways or build them. I took this from a german fansite, where Thamis was answering some questions.
    As i saw 3 or 4 days ago, he abnegate the invention of railways. We will see in 10 days.

    Hope i could clarify ...

    Gott ist stark auch in den Schwachen, wenn sie gläubig ihm vertrauen; Zage nimmer, und dein Nachen wird trotz Sturm den Hafen schaun!

    Yes it would be nice to see this thread and other threads updated on gameday.

    Sadly I think the forum is going to break down into chaos and a ton of Campaign Guides.

    If you thought demo chaos was bad wait until release day :P

    Once the game is out and I have played it for a reasonable amount of time I will endeavor to make a thread containing the sum total of all ETW knowledge.

    In other words I'll post up a giant guide listing factions, units, buildings, technologies and provinces. And you can all help me add in the detail.

    Eventually I might write a campaign guide that takes a more... humorous approach to advice and strategic tips.

    Year 1768, Russia didn't seem most pleased with our offer.... It seems like they don't love Mudkips at all... We are now on the verge of War.

    Year 1745. The grand construction is complete. Our defenses are the finest in the world. Along the French border the last of the forts has risen, the sentance is complete. Seen on the map our forts spell a message of terror, of fear.

    FRANCE SUX LOL.
