There would need to be something that makes it unique from al the other eurpoe maps. HEre are some thoughts.

1 there should be some battles and historical events involved.

2 THere should be an inset of colonys for britain and spain to add some territories in their empires.

3 There should be territories on an inset map that represent the three estates and their power struggles. There should be a bonus for holding a majoraty of them.

4 If you control paris and russia there should be a negitive bonus since the russian winter wiped out much of naplean's army.

I kinda agree with Napoleans Empire. But, I was thinking of a British Empire. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/c ... re_red.png

Like seeing how the British didn't own the whole world how would you only incorporate the places the Brits owned ›› through ports.

This would create a lot of wasted space.

Actually, In France they released this game a while ago. I got it shipped to the US, but don't have the Ottoman Empire expansion. It's quite neat, you can play regular Risk on it or theres a more scripted Napoleonic Wars game.

Nice idea, but I can't see it happening.
The countries there are way too far apart and some of the territories (particularly for the islands) would be tiny.

The Napoleans Empire idea, though, sounds great :)

I would be delighted to help with the art/graphics, and have all of the tools here.

I've done a quick sketch up based on the map you suggested :

Clicky :)

Tell me what you want to happen from that point and I'll get going.
Where/what do you want your regions to be ?
How many ?
If we used actual country names it would end up looking like the Europe map...

We could have some ships on there as well if you want :)
