Revision as of 17:29, 12 December 2015

Basic Rules

  • One turn is a year.
  • Game Starts in 1490 CE.
  • One player per country, one player may choose a colony if the colony has more than 50 years and it's stable.
  • Game is archived every 15 years.
  • Be plausible, Australia won't be colonizable until 1740, and it will take at least 30 years to take it completely,  however small oupost are plausible, but no wide expansion until the said in-game date.

Expansion

Any nation has an Specific Expansion Rate, depending on their status, in civil disarray can expand by only 5 pixels, but nations in an stable stance can expand by 8 pixels per turn and pending on how organized and powerfull by 32 pixels per turn.

Regions expansion is, however, different.

Example:

Siberia's expansion is only of 2 pixels per year before 1550.

Sahara's expansion is 1 pixel per year until 1680 unless a Revolution Bonus is taken in which it is 5 pixels.

Expansion in Central Asia is 4 Pixels per year until 1700.

Colonization

Any nation with a coast to a water in which they can send ships to colonize or settle a region far from the nations mainland core regions and the Colonial Expansion will be specific pending on how much has nation been colonizing since the first colony was made one pixel is 50 sq km and in the first seven years of expansion the colony can only expand 500 sq km the. Size per pixel is the total meaning that if you have four colonies your colonial rate must be of 250 sq km per each and not 1000 per each.

Age Size (px)
0- 25 years 5 px
25 - 50 years 10 px
50 - 75 years 25 px
75 - 100 years 35 px
100 - 125 years 50 px
125 - 150 years 75 px
150 - 200 years 100 px

However, nation's colonial expansion may be decreased if some sort of crisis or important conflict occurs (if France is annexed for a small period of time to Germany it loses some of its colonial rate or reverts to the previous stage of colonial expansion).

Vassalage and Puppet states

Vassals

you can vassalize a nation after a five year period of continuous attempts of bringing said nation to your ruling wether by force or by culture, the abilities of a Vassal state can rivalize to those of the main nation of your control, with only the exception that the colonial expansion you do with the vassal will be taken out of the main nation expansion rate.

  • Vassals - They can have colonies but under a perpetual 5 Px expansion rate  or in the case of that the main nation posses two or more vassals with a coastline it can have more, 5 pixels per each vassal, either for the main nations use or for one vassal of theirs.
  • Vassals are basically forced to join war in the case of that the main nation joins, so if Per example France invades Burgundy, Navarre would have to join the war as well.
  • Vassal can have relatively independent status from their main nations with the difference of having an appointed ruler and some cultural influence from the main nation.
  • Vassals can have vassals, although the main nations may not have direct control and thus are more puppet states than vassals to the main nation.

Puppets

Puppet states are nations heavily influenced by one main nation, but that are not directly ruled by the main nation, or by an appointed leader, the puppets won't necessarily join the war of the main nation, and can have a colonial expansion rate of its own, but it can be given up to the main nation, this nations can easily fall out of someone's influence in a rather fast speed, they as well have some abilities

  • Puppets can be vassals of a vassal nation or occupied territories with self proclaimed government, their military and culture may be very different from its parent nation.
  • Puppets colonial rates are the same of the main nations, and the puppet nations can't sell without retribution a colony or settlement unless gained in war or exchanged for other territories.
  • Puppets can't be controlled by the nations, so it may not aid its parent nation in war.

War or Bellic Conflicts

Algorithm

it means any conflict between one or two nations for a specific motive

Location

  • Isolated Nation: of the nation has not been contacted nor explored previously and it's separated from the Attacker's Mainland or Homeland region by Different Seas and or if its heavily defended (Island only) +10 for Defendant, -5 for attacker
  • Mountainious: if the nation Attacked(Defendant) is or present considerable amounts of Mountain Systems which in some way mean a difficulty for the attacker to invade,+9 For defendant, -5 for attacker
  • Flatlands: if a nation has a flat consistent surface or Easily takeable land +8

  • Allies in war: +5 per each ally in war, +4 in Vassals, +3 in Supplies
  • Tired Military: -2. So the same army battling for more than two consecutive turns.
  • Expansion: -1 point per each turn invested in National expansion outside colonial

  • To Gain Prestige: -4 it means the war is done for prestige in front of the World Powers
  • Subjugation: +1 Means that the motive is to make the other nation a vassal

Casus Belli

the Casus belli points are given to All states and can only be given one specific depending on the reasons ingame of the War, its similar to the Motive points but Specifically based in Ingame information

  • Reconquest: +10 - it means any Campaign that Refers to one single nation facing another nation that Represents the Opposite or that are seen as enemy (Say the Caliphate of Cordoba and Castille or the Franks)
  • Crusade: +8 it means any Religious based assault at an Enemy of the Opposite religion (Ex Spanish-Venetian coalition against the Ottomans) of two or more Nations against one or more nations
  • Throne Claims: +6 - +2 , Six if the Nation claiming the other's throne has actual grounds ( say aragon and naples) +4 if the nation has no grounds at all,
  • Intervention: +5 it means any state intruding an ally or enemy state to Keep or aid the current Government (mainly used for Vassals or Allies in Civil war)
  • Self Defense: +4 it means if the nation is invaded or attacked by a enemy without reason
  • Imperial Manifesto: +4 , it means any sort of Pro imperialist movement that portrays one nation as Superior to all
  • Irredentism-Nationalism: +2 though not Present in this specific era it can be said as any movement that enforces the believe to unify an ethnic group under one same banner (Say the French taking over the Gaul, Spain taking over Hispania and Venice doing the same with Italy)
  • No Casus Belli: -2, it means that if there's no real reason outside pure expansionism the player will be given -2 in the algorithm

Total:

  • it means the result, the result will be ((60/(60+55)*2)-1) = 0.0434782 =4.35% of land can be taken by the attacker, by the way i would like to say that at difference that most of the other map games to topple the government there would only be needed 30% of land taken, and to vassalize between 23 to 25% of land and if a nation has faced a war where 21 % of its land has been taken but more than ten years have passed even if you take the other 9% you can't annex the nation, because, depending on how strong was the nation prior, (Ex Eastern Roman empire during the Arabian invasion of North Africa) to the war, the government is likely to have already recover of the war, this is mainly to avoid a Over expansionism of Nations and to be as much plausible as possible, as well as to avoid powerful nations to be annexed by smaller nations just because they took the 30%
  • another thing is, that a city-state, or a small state (Luxembourg-Venice) Can't annex a Local power, even if they get 30% this is to avoid the Ottoman empire becoming Venetian or France falling to the Luxembourgish

Example War

Ottoman War of Eastern Anatolia

Ottoman Caliphate

  • Location:Nearby +5, Mountainous -5,
  • Strenght:Side with Greater Population +8,Huge army +6, tired military -2,Control of the Seas +2,Develop 0 (Ottoman Empire +5,Egypt +5)
  • Tactical Advantage: Attackers advantage +2
  • Random: 2/4:0.5 -- 5
  • Motive: To gain land +2
  • Casus Belli:No casus belli -2
  • Total:31

Dulkadir-Ramadanids Sultanates

  • Location:In the Country Within yours +6,Mountainious +9
  • Strength:Small army +4,Develop:+3,Allies (Dulkadir +5,Ramadanids +5)
  • Tactical Advantage: Defenders Advantage +4
  • Random:1/1 = 1.0 - 10
  • Motive:Life or Death +10, Ramadanids +5 to aid a friendly nation (two motives for the two nations)
  • Casus Belli:Self Defense +5
  • Total:66

Result

  • The war ends with ((66/(66+31)*2)-1) :0,360824 -- 36 % of the Ottoman Empire falls to the Dulkadir and Ramadanids Dynasty war lasts ((21*66)/31)=44.7096/8)5.5887*1.5) = 8,38305 -- the war last eight years

Like the previous example, the war will last ---- and the land taken will be ----, the important thing is that the algorithm is done considering any possible factor that may help or Make harder to defend a nation, this is to bring Plausible results to the game, in a war there can't be more than one motive, or more than one Casus belli

Special Nations and War Rules

Nations that have proven to be unlikely to be taken have special bonuses, like the Byzantine Empire previous to the Fourth Crusade or the Frankish West Francia, in this case to take them over you would need a 55% of their land to be taken in one war or, in a series of war periods, this only applies either if the nation has withstand the time passing by (Byzantium) or if it has land that could not be taken by its enemies under religious beliefs (Arabia's Mecca for the Caliphates and Muslims, and the Papal States for the Christians)

As well a war may only last what the war is supposed to last. Any further fighting will only cause null points which mean you gain more war spent negative points without gaining more points to annex another nation, and to knock one nation out, by addding the current war score with the previous war score this war must be in the 8 year period right after the war ended. otherwise the score would be taken as only one war.
