Succession 1
France elects to go first with 3D+5d for
8D in Europe along with Austro-Spanish
Rivalry to unflag the Dutch for 11D total
in Europe.
Britain fights back and so it goes
through the first four ITs with
Britain unable to keep up, French
Fleets (thanks to South Seas) sealing
Europe for the French.
Come the War of the Spanish Succession
Britain will get hammered down further.

And Britain continues to fight in Europe
also opening with 4D+2tp.
Last IT by Britain comes with 'Military
Spending Overruns' and both French
Squadrons in Europe depart. Britain
wins Prestige this turn, her High

France moved first all but the last turn.

Empire 1
France shores up European Prestige while
Britain, moving second, gets
a (much needed) jump in India, grabbing
all three Diplomatic advantages.
So France has Europe and America locked.
Britain has India.
The Caribbean has a Union Jack edge.

Revolution 1
Luck favors trade in India and Britain
is there to profit. Where Spice was once
worth 1VP, its now 3VP, same as Cotton.
The Caribbean looms large again with back
to back 3vp-region and Sugar scoring.
Britain moved last` last turn to take a
lead in the Caribbean and no doubt they
will (and did) so again this turn.
