Confirming the treaty for Chile and Hawaii.
Thanks to spryllino for the handy labelled map. I'll see about updating said map with labels each time we have a significant change of some sort. There is a slight problem, in that I've run out of attachment space on the forums, but I hope to resolve that by clearing out attachments from my multitude of ancient, less successful NESes.
In regards to ship modules, I slept on what do about this, and I've determined to do what I was going to do with tanks. As I have previously stated, modules were not originally considered as part of the ruleset, and a number of the techs relating to them therefore are rather hodgepodge and added in post-NES start. It should be noted that the cost of doing this may not be worth it for some designs and vessels, as it will cost double the regular module cost to add one to an older design. In this case, adding a module to your design (or to another person's design) will do one of two things:
1. In the case that you are adding the module to your own design, it will be noted that two models of said ship exist, and they will be differentiated by year number. the '05 Chasseur compared to the '15 Chasseur. The costs WILL be the same in regards to different models, but there will be an upgrade fee for anyone who chooses to upgrade their older model to the new one. They will NOT require the permission of the designer for upgrading to the new model.
2. If one nation chooses to add a module to an older design (say the Zygmut), it will create a new model, just like above, and I will credit you to the original designer's name under the first page stats. However, this will ONLY be done once, and after the first person does it, there'll be a list upgrade cost to make the new model.
@Lord_Iggy: rather than be too formal about it this time (at work, less space to work with), I'll just break it down like this. Those who have left are mostly those who had moved into the slums of the eastern cities, and I believe the actual manpower numbers is 240, give or take about 10. The ones who remain are predominantly those in the western provinces, who have since settled in those regions and returned/settled in Scottson. Needless to say, those in the now-majority western towns (though perhaps not provinces as a whole) are less interested in becoming citizens than those who have remained in the eastern provinces. Similarly, none, being American, are really enthusiastic about learning Swedish, which is a bit of a sore point for most adults, though they obviously are willing to learn enough to swear and ask if you want a beverage with your food. As for your wonderfully described mounties (God, I wish my photoshop skills were better so I could have included a picture) they are resented by the majority-American settlements where they are seen as unwelcome invaders, particularly since they frown upon the rampant smuggling and unregistered trading going on across the border with the ATA. Overall though, they are resented as an arm of a government that a lot of these settlers don't really recognize as their own.
