Nice graphics, the way they look I can infer that the ideas I had muttered about giving a special role to control of chokepoints, ie fortified cities controling some key access points such as bridges over rivers or moutain passes, has not been implemented.
I can understand it of course, other priorities in the scheme of a grand campaign with diplomacy, production and all, but I really hope one day this will see the light : in the context of european warfare from the 1600s to the end of the napoleonic era, much of the actual campaigning had control of such key locations as a key element : Ratisbon in 1809, the bridges over the Po in 1800, but also Maastricht in the war of devolution for control of the crossing of the Meuse, etc etc etc...
I would really like to see this implemented one day, because this opens up the game by making it valuable for a player to keep sizeable forces and garrisons to cover for key fortified cities that give easier passage over a major river for example.
