What happens then is:
- see how many Service Centres (SCs) you own. These are the special squares with dots in (ie not every region is an SC). You own it if you're in it at year end, or owned it last year and nobody is in it now. (If you get to an SC in spring but move on in Fall then you don't get to own that SC.)
- if you own more SCs than you have units, you can build more units (up to the numbers of SCs you have). But you can only build in your home territory (which conceivably limits you below the number of SCs you gained, particularly if you have units on your home SC locations).
- if you have fewer SCs than units you have to disband down the excess units
Will kinda make sense once you see it happen. I expect we'll all gain an SC or two in the guest year as there are initially lots of unowned ones and easy land grabs available. Will get more interesting in 1902/1903... but getting good alliances in place, deciding whether to go near your neighbors' SCs etc, is already kinda important even on the first move!
That might be a good project for the summer!GooberTheHat wrote:This display of hubris is interesting. I am imagining tiger running a YouTube channel dedicated to advance diplomacy strategies, with dozens of hour long videos.
