French Campaign 1890 - Part 0 - Weaponized Hotels at Sea - UAD DIP - Brutal Legendary Difficulty

#ultimateadmiral #dreadnoughts #france Welcome back to another campaign in Ultimate Admiral Dreadnoughts - The Dreadnought Improvement project! This time - the French! Ahh, the French hotels have always been celebrated for their excellence, so let's put guns on them and send them out to sea. Memes aside, I do actually like the look of the French tumblehome pre-dreadnought hulls! Unlike the last two campaigns, we're now playing the Extended version of DIP, with many more playable nations, and with minor nations re-introduced, so gaining allied trading partners and selling them ships is now possible again. Also unlike the Ottoman Empire and Norway (Scandinavia) that I played as in my last two campaigns, France is a more fully fledged base game nation, starting out with a stronger economy. So to up the challenge a bit and make things interesting, I've modified the game a bit on my own. Some of that you may have seen (citadel rework, battle AI changes, etc) and some will be campaign specific; -Brutal Legendary Difficulty: AI income and tech multipliers up from 1.5 to 1.8 -Revolution GDP and growth nerf reversed to become a buff. If a nation is beated to the point hat the population revolts (revol = true), they will come out with a stronger economy rather than one that collapses into nothing.
