Yes, 1900 is the start date.  Darman has been doing some setting-up of the A-H navy, based on the historical ships and some ships derived from those historical ships that I cooked up.  See this thread for details: http://www.navalism.org/index.php/topic,5862.0.html

Please correct me if I am wrong here on the following.

1) You are using a great deal of the N3 rules set Pop, IC, BP, Cash.

Correct.

2) AH is to have $128 income and 18 BP.  Looks like a five or ten year spending for startup?  I am trying to read quickly but there is a lot to cover.

5 years, 10* your income and BP. so $1280 and 180 BP.

Quick questions

3) Any limitations on spending?  IE can I buy more IC and BP for example?

Thats it for the moment.

No buying more IC or BP in startup is my understanding.

All logical, thanks for the answers.

Starting tech?

everyone is baseline, however starting ships should be backdated as apropriat.  engine year = laydown year for startup ships , then the tech kicks in.

Naval infrastructure?  IE ports, drydocks?

Costs are the N3 costs on all of that, Forts, Ports, CD guns, Slips, and Docks.

Sorry, let me clear up my question.  We start with nothing I take it and it all must be bought to start?

Yup Nations start as a bare page with just the financial figures provided by snip.  You figure out your IC based on your Cash, and population comes from this page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_population_in_1900 . other than that though you buy it all.

I take it people wanted to use political divisions of 19th century rather than late 20th / early 21st but you were limited to map you had to use? 

Hapsburg Empire is A-H, Serbia, Bulgaria, Romania and Moldavia (extended to Black Sea).  With Albania, Greece, Kosovo, Macedonia and Montenegro as independent nations in the Balkans?

We were somewhat limited by the available map blank (I am working on an even larger version but its going to take awhile and be esentialy the same), the changes to AH were actualy mostly because I couldnt figure out how to give them colonial holdings anywhere else.  As im sure you noticed Italy is greatly expanded, I wanted to give AH an equivilant expansion.

Not complaining about territory AH has.  Doesn't matter to me, its just the start up.

Comment was on the map.  Do you guys remember the map blank I found?  The one with all the small subdivisions?  It was Victoria II province map I believe.

Here is the final map for Europe during the aborted N4 start.

I have the blank map for the globe.  SOMEPLACE on the forum should be a link to it. 

In any case I have the info I need to get started.  I will post a rough first pass tonight.  Thanks to everyone for answering all my questions.
