A quick question, is the 'Øresundstold' as it was called, present in EU?
'Øresundstolden' was a toll all ships had to pay to get past Zealand, as Danish forts (and thus cannons) where able to reach ships sailing through 'Øresund' (Strip of water between Zealand and Sweden). I know this was a BIG benefit to the danish coffers, and should, IMHO, be in this game, as it is so historically accurate! (And also to boost the Danish economy, so I can more easily rid the world of the scum that is Sweden.
)
And another aspect to take into considering:
It was also reason for great political activity, as not all major powers wished to cough up what was rightfully Danish money.
That too would have effect on the gameplay.
So is it present or not? (Of course it ended when sweden most wrongfully stole Skåne. We have not forgotten, and one day that silly Swedish Skåne accent will be changed into Danish once again!
)
On a sidenote, I'm not 100% sure it was called 'Øresundstolden'. My brain must be turning into mush from all the computer playing!
