Baltic Confederation reporting in...

We don't know what we got... excect a cryptic letter saying "Check back later".  Stupid magic 8 ball tech advisor.

[Borys]

Ahoj!
Would you agree to be our guine pig? As the technology list for Baltic League is impossible to find, you will be treated as newly setup country in this regard.

:)

Look at the list, and make your pick. You can see that there is a cost of each, varying from -2 to +5. You cannot pick any of the +5 technologies, they are there as point of reference, of what can be achieved sometime in the future of the game.

You can select technologies as you desire, with the following limitations:
- if you do not pick any +3 tech, the sum of what you chose can be 5
- if you do pick any +3 tech, the sum of what you chose must be 0

E.g. you pick "main calibre -1, 11 inches",  that allowing you take "BB/AC Maximum Armor Plating (turrets, belts & CT):
......Advanced (+1): Krupp Cemented 1.00"

The sum is 0.
You can pick one -2 tech, and buy two +1 techs for it.
Please have a go.
Sorry for the delays, but we are still a bit in WIP condition.

Jolly good show!
Tech looks nice. I noticed that by mistake I included the Fire Control thingy, which is not "choseable". There should be rail guns or something like that instead. But good that you gave our rules guru something to chew on :)

Now waiting for the Konikrijke Nederlands to show himself :)
