Tech trade is not allowed. How did you get the technologies in such short time? Do you really play with the modification?

Edit: Btw: Who used cheat mode? Edit: Ahhh, right

The one where the trader unit switches position with the fire boat, yup.
Keep in mind that starting with some colonies in Brazil I've got a bit of a head start with trade, also, the Imperial gov tech is just three techs away from the starting point.

Edit: And I guess it would be McMonkey to remove one of his colonies.

The dutch kingdom is really underpowered from the beggining!

Sure? Maybe Portugal is overpowered

Karlheinz next (and in Blitzkrieg)

[Radyserb]

what? is there another chrisis in the forum?

Btw: Congratulation to your 1000th ontopic post

No, Portugal is OK, every nation has advantages but Holland. For example, England and France has many cities (5 or 6 in the homeland ), Portugal has colonies and Habsburg as well. Dutch has two cities in the homeland and no colonies, i should have my own advantages...

edit: Thanks Rady. it has been funny to be all this time posting.

Besides perhaps giving the Dutch more units in the beginning, might it make Holland easier to play if only they get the trade freight unit slot while everyone else use the regular caravans?
Could be seen as a trading bonus.

Huh? Couldn't you just use the Merchantmen unit instead of removing an existing unit?
You know, remove the obsolete tech for the merchantmen and add the "not dutch" to the colonial goods one.

cupcoffee why you don't use avatar?

I've never really thought about it, to be honest. I wouldn't even know what pic to use as an avatar other than a cup of coffee.
