sorry, jmv, i think my post sounded a bit critical, on `re-reading`. it's your choice of course <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/happy.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="^_^" border="0" alt="happy.gif" /> and i am looking forward to seeing the mods!

i don't know which italian states were allied with britain in the 1800s... i was under the impression that pretty much all of the existing powers were increasingly against them, though i haven't looked at that period in detail. napoleonic france was certainly an enemy to the northern italians, and austria occupied much of northern italy at the time... i know that slightly later, in the `mid-1800s` when the northern italians were trying to reunite italy, the other european powers were definitely against them (they didn't want italy to become a unified nation).

it shouldn't be too hard to include your napoleonic mods in with the builds, but give the user the option of whether to install them (much like they currently have the option of whether to install the online patches). it would be a shame not to include them at all, since they're likely to be very good, but i also think the user should have the choice, since it's a major change of scene you're making! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/happy.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="^_^" border="0" alt="happy.gif" />


<!--QuoteBegin-jmv575+--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(jmv575)</div><div class='quotemain'><!--QuoteEBegin-->There was supposed to be some quest regarding a Huguenot Admiral. I don't know anything about it though.

Kieron is certainly right about the North/South split in Italy. Up in `butter-country` you have all the industry (centered around Milan, as I recall) while the south is oil based.

Kieron, you may be right about the Italian distribution of forces. I'm going on scant readings that I'm trying to remember. Napoleon's Italian campaigns have never piqued my interest. I will remedy that. However, the goal would be to find a sea power allied with Britain around 1803. If Naples is not the best choice, then please set us right.

I've always enjoyed Piemonte. Many many generations ago (before `Boney-part`) my maternal ancestors hailed from there.

If you can figure out how to make a seprate 17th century and Napoleonic Build I'll be with you all the way. Just let me know on that.

You are right, Quebradas would make an excellent Corsair base. My only concern was that eliminating pirates wouldn't go over well in a game called Pirates of the Caribbean. If there were two builds, however... <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> Keep me posted.<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
