I would say it`s different There are no options to build industries nor roads, only cards to "develop" a region with some local effects, not sure about the global effects of the level of development of each region, i´m sure there must be some Some regions have built in "industries", like shipyards, ...

I finished Austria and moved onto Prussia and then ran into a problem. The regiments were reorganized in 1808 and therefore the old regiment numbers have different names eg 5th Regiment der Königin Dragoons becomes 5th Dragoner (Brandenburgisches) Regiment.

The event for the annexation of Holland is bugged, it should work if you do not own Amsterdam (at least I think thats what the tooltip says), but instead it turns off if that is the case when 1809 comes If you don´t want to wait until it gets fixed, it´s possible to open the annexation events file a...

Regarding Saxony changing sides In it´s current form the event it´s just a good peace treaty for Saxony, it doesn't actually change sides If you want anything else, you have to mod the event yourself, there´s nothing more to it for now, don´t know if they are planning to put any more effort into it,...

Hi Maybe I´m wrong, but I think that the Annexation of Holland events are evaluating ownership of Amsterdam the wrong way The "OFF" event checks if you don´t own Amsterdam to trigger, and the actual annexation event checks if you do, shouldn´t it be the other way around?

How about this: 1.
