EiA:RoN New majors

Very much work in progress, perhaps even "shouldn't be done" level of work.

Common rules for new player countries

In Rise of Nationalism campaigns with more than 7 players new player countries are needed. The countries defined here have the following common rules:

• Original player countries never gain political points from forming alliances with new player countries.
  • New player countries always gain a political point when forming an alliance.
  • Alliances between new player countries give points to both as per normal.
  • A broken alliance costs points just as usual nevertheless.
• For technology prices new player countries are counted as having as many corps and fleets as they could have without achieving Dominant status. (eg. Greece can have 8 corps, 2 from start, 3 from Greece track, 3 from conquering provinces.) Their homeland manpower is counted from their starting cores with double income taken into account.

Minor player countries have the following extra rules:

• Minor countries may not demand an unconditional surrender.
• Minor countries surrenders are always conditional. ie. Victor may not demand unconditional surrender.
• If a minor country ever achieves major status, these rules are no longer in effect. No conditions can return a major country to minor status.

  • If Greece declares war on the Coalition 5 British infantry and a corps and 6 French infantry and a corps are placed in Athens. If a corps is not available no infantry are placed, respectively for each country.
    • If there is both a Greek and a British and/or French corps in Athens, a field combat takes place with the Greek attacking.
• If Greece is not (yet) part of the Crimean War he may gift 0-3 manpower to Russia in each economic phase.

Greek rebellion of Janina:

• While the Crimean War is being fought or if Turkey has lost the Crimean War, if the Gustav of Sweden -minor war happens, the Turkish province of Albania revolts instead as per the Balkan revolt minor war rules. If the revolt succeeds, Albania becomes a Greek province.

Fledgling army:

• Greece pays double for the breech-loading rifles technology and railroads.

Rebuilding of Athens:

• The province of Greece produces additional +1$/+1mp and the port of Athens is worth 0/1 in trade.

Greek nationalism:

• The provinces of Greece, Macedonia, Albania, Corfu, Crete, Cyprus and Rhodos gain +1$/1mp if controlled by Greece.
• All of the provinces mentioned above become Greek provinces if conquered by Greece and can only be ceded in a formal peace.
  • If Albania is conquered by Greece and then ceded back to Turkey (or Turkey liberates the province from some other country that Greece had ceded it to in a formal peace), it becomes a Turkish province and can again only be ceded in a formal peace.

Spirit of Thermopylae:

• If a Greece commander is leading a battle in a Greek nationalist province (All Greek islands, Greece, Macedonia) or an area bordering these provinces, all leaders taking part in the combat (from the start or as reinforcements) are limited to a tactical maximum rating of 2 even if downgraded. Greece is to declare invoking this rule once an attack by or against Greek forces eligible is imminent in the land combat phase. ie. Before opponent chooses which corps to take to battle (which is before chit picks).

Dispute of Crete:

• As long as Turkey has not ceded Crete to Greece or some other major power, Turkey and Greece share the core of Crete. The side that has the most troops present on Crete decides who will gain income from Crete. Counting troops: first count factors in corps if any and then garrisons (thus even one factor in a corps is more than five in garrison.) If both sides have equal amount of troops present on Crete, they must come to consensus about the money or neither side will gain the profit. Each side can have garrison factors in Candia.
  • If Greece is gaining the income through this rule, he does not gain the +1$/1mp specified in the Greek nationalism rule.

Greece track: Each economic phase Greece may pay 3$ to roll d10, on a result of 6+ this track advances one step. Following modifiers apply:

Greek income from provinces at the start of the game

• Counting together the Greek nationalism rule, the Rebuilding of Athens rule and the double income from specific provinces, the Greece province is wort 6$/4mp and the Macedonia province is worth 4$/4mp, coming up to a 10$/8mp from core provinces. If Greece has more troops on Crete he gains the 1$/0mp from Crete.
• Athens has a trade of 0/1 and Salonika has a trade of 0/1. Thus Greek American trade is worth $2 and British trade, if open, is worth $2. Thus the maximum income of Greece at the start of the game comes up to 15$/8mp.
