A bit strange that there is no real difference between 1798 and 1806.
In case there will only be 3 conquests I prefer it like 1798, 1807 and 1813

In case there will only be 3 conquests I prefer it like 1798, 1807 and 1813 After Jena/Auerstaedt in 1806 Prussia hardly was a major player in 1807. I think that the war of the Third coalition (with hesitant Prussia) is quite a good choice for a hypothetical conquest. |

And, to be honest, I would prefer 1700 as a starting date of the game. War of the Spanish succession and Northern war, diplomatic revolution and 7 years war etc... Marlborough, Eugen of Savoy, Charles XII, Frederick the Great, Suvorov and Napoleon on one battlefield. A dream  |

I think that the war of the Third coalition (with hesitant Prussia) is quite a good choice for a hypothetical conquest. Well, no Prussia? Who cares? The problem is that they anyway are not historically accurate (Poland) for both 1798 and 1806. Balance wise corrections are OK. Because it is quite difficult to chase political changes in the period between 2-4 Coalition. Take Denmark for instance. But for me the problem is that the differences between 1798 conquest and 1806 are cosmetic. It is better to have conquest which will vary from the previous as we only have 3 to choose. |

How about Franko-Russian alliance between Napoleon and Paul I ? In EW4 there was actually an interesting feature in some campaigns:3 factions instead of 2. In conquests this idea could be interesting as well, for example, French coalition, Anti-French coalition and the League of Armored Neutrality (though short-lived)... And I would prefer that all generals were present on the battlefield at once (instead of appearing randomly in different places, sometimes in quite bizarre ones, like Sardinia). Ps. After they changed the balance, playing for Prussia is quite a fun actually  So I care |

But I wonder where are the mod-makers? |

But I wonder where are the mod-makers? If I had more experience I would change 1798 into WW1/Modern Day, 1806 into 1939 and 1812 into 1943.(My suggestioms for modders) |
