for all who do not know !!
you can play any other small nation, including the Netherlands, Sweden, Denmark, Hannover etc
I tested the first few laps, it comes :-)


in the folder "C: \ Program Files (x86) \ Matrix Games \ Wars of Napoleon \ NGC" you have to open the file with Wordpad "5-1805 January Grand Campaign"

Example :
the line 8 change for Niederlande!
FRA | SPA & PRU | TUR | NED |

the line 9 change for Sweden!
GBR | AUS | RUS | SWE |

you can do it for any other Nation




für alle die es noch nicht wissen!!
man kann auch jede andere kleine Nation spielen, zum Beispiel : Niederlande, Schweden, Dänemark, Hannover u.s.w.
ich habe die ersten Runden getestet, es geht :-)


im Ordner "C:\Program Files (x86)\Matrix Games\Wars of Napoleon\NGC" müsst ihr die folgende Datei mir Wordpad öffnen "5 - 1805 January Grand Campaign"

die Zeile 8 ändern
für Nierderlande FRA|SPA&PRU|TUR|NED|

die Zeile 9 ändern
für Schweden GBR | AUS | RUS | SWE |

Possible but be careful, the game is NOT intended to play minor nations, even more so nations which are Satellite of big powers...it would probably totally lack of readable events (we don't write information text nobody should ever see :D ) and will surely behave strangely.

IMHO the sole minor country that "could" be played like that would be Sweden

a question to Philthib:


it is possible to modify the file "5-1805 January" one round is a day?

Technically yes, but keeping logistics realistic requires a major overhaul of units, supplies, structures etc. when changing days per turn.....

Yes, as lodi said, it is a HUGE modding task...but feasible
