Short on content

Obviously, more tips are needed here... --Havard 15:43, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

It is very surprising that we don't have more strategy content here. I tend to wonder if we *do* have the content, it just isn't being linked to? --Musides 13:54, 13 April 2009 (UTC)

Reputation strategy

What I would love to see would be a guide to conquest while maintaining a good reputation in IN (and since I don't have IN yet, I'm not the guy to write it :)). Some strategies translate from vanilla, but the best strategy (force vassilize then diplo-annex) doesn't translate well, or so I understand. I see this being a particular problem in Germany and Italy - uniting Germany, and Italy to a somewhat lesser extent, is a more daunting prospect than ever, given the vast number of small nations. --LMaggitti 14:36, 2 November 2009 (UTC)

Well, I ended up writing that one myself; maybe this will be true of this suggestion also. Though I'll need a few more days with IN before I can do so. A recent forum thread, plus some game experience, has made me aware how important war exhaustion can be in certain circumstances. Aside from of course avoiding a high war exhuastion score for yourself, you can use war exhaustion as a weapon - to win wars that you couldn't win otherwise, and to devestate a competitor nation by refusing to make peace when it has a very high war score. Anyway, someone should write the article.--LMaggitti 17:49, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

Nice work on the reputation article!  :) --Musides 19:49, 20 November 2009 (UTC)

No longer valid in IN

Why are Revolutionary countries and Midgame Superpower Slice & Dice listed as such? -- Junuxx (talk) 04:18, 25 November 2009 (UTC)

The Midgame Superpower Slice & Dice hinges upon the 'no land connection' penalty that existed prior to IN. In IN, the rules for distance penalties have changed and simply slicing a power down the middle will not confer any extra penalties if all of the provinces still remain on the same continent.

I probably made that, so take it with a grain of salt. It was an attempt to better organize that kind of content, but there is room for improvement. --Musides 20:16, 25 November 2009 (UTC)
