I was thinking that we should do a thirteen colonies rebellion
Basically instead of uniting as the U.S., we have the thirteen colonies rebelling against each other for their philosophies. British Canada can also be as another player
Note that I am still a very much amateur of two (Picard can remember) so I request aid to those
Who can help me shape this
Any comments
Feel free

Like this idea, maybe you can make a TW of your own and see how this goes?

But I would need help from peopl like experienced players to get this off We tend to require a host to have at least experience in two TWs before hosting his TW (after it comes to his turn to host, of course). But no worries there, after the current TW, I will be the next host, then after me is Napoleon Bonaparte. You would be at some point after Frederick the Great's as well... that's at least 3 TWs experience worth for you by the time you host your TW. You wouldn't be so new by then, but of course, some hosts have co-hosts helping them. Perfectly fine, really. |

Breaking news: Prussia, Britain, and France declares war on Rhode Island! Anyway, that could be helped by making each colony worth a province. Maybe British Canada would have two, since they're literally at war with everyone. |

Then any colony with more than 2 neighbours would be disadvantaged. I suggest merging each small colony (Delaware, NJ, Connecticut, RI) into a larger neighbour (Maryland, NY/PA, Massachusetts). Or make them neutral (American Colonial Diplomacy!) Edit: Forget Massachusetts. It already has Maine. Merge Connecticut and Rhode Island together instead. |

That would work, but I'm thinking more of like this: The Revolutionary War depended on militia, so it'd be best if we implement a militia system. Your troops would only stay for several phases (1 for example) so this discourages from attacking early on. Of course, with tech research, decent armies that actually last could be created. |

We can actually implement a regional tech tree, to buff the chances of New England colonies being anschlussed by British or NY. I also believe that each colony should has its own Colonial buff (e.g. NY getting economy buff, British getting Hessian Mercenaries), so small colonies would be safer, if they are not merged. |

Not a bad idea. I was thinking of another Millia system for early on in my war were it's somthing like you train them in specific provinces and they can move, they are weak but are used as defence. |
