March of the Eagles Developer Diary 16 – Great Britain

Welcome to the 16th developer diary for March of the Eagles and now we turn our eyes to an island that should never be underestimated. It is small in territory, large in potential and the greatest threat to total French domination.
Great Britain is one of the great powers you can play and win with in March of the Eagles. With one of the great natural borders of history – the English Channel - protecting it, Britain is secure from invasion so long as that border can be safeguarded. Victory in the Seven Years' War guaranteed that Britain would be the pre-eminent naval power for some time, and not even the loss of thirteen American colonies changed that. Great Britain enters the Napoleonic era with near total mastery of the seas.
Remaining in this position requires just one thing - the balance of power on the continent must be maintained. Should any single European nation build a coalition or empire large enough to cow its neighbors, Britain would face a concentrated foe with much greater resources. The forces unleashed by the French Revolution threaten to upset this balance, and so Britain eventually emerged as France's principal foe. The Treaty of Amiens, negotiated to restore some semblance of balance between the two powers, is now a dead letter. Bad faith on both sides of the table led to Britain declaring war on France on the 18th of May 1803. March of the Eagles takes up the struggle two years later. Britain still rules the oceans while France is building an impenetrable fortress on land.
This is a fight to the finish, and Britain expects that every man will do his duty.
Great Britain's five unique ideas are:
• Press Gangs
• Bank of England
• Brown Bess Musket
• Parliamentary System
• The Wooden Wall
Press Gangs
Press Gangs were long a cornerstone of English naval recruitment policy. People won’t or can’t volunteer to serve on naval vessels, so crews scour the cities and take men by force without notice, crewing the many warships of Great Britain. This idea cuts British naval maintenance by one third.
Bank of England
The Bank of England is the central bank of Great Britain and acts as the English Government's banker. The power of the British pound and stability of her economy means that the Bank of England can reduce British interest payments to a degree unseen in other nations – and since this will be an expensive war, this is a very handy power.
Brown Bess Musket
The Brown Bess musket is every infantry soldier's best friend and the standard armament of your British redcoat. This reliable firearm gives British infantry a 25% bonus to their attacks.
Parliamentary System
The Parliamentary System is a democratic government in which the ministers of the Executive Branch derive their legitimacy from and are accountable to a Legislature or parliament and thus the Executive and Legislative branches are interconnected. The rise of strong Prime Ministers in the Seven Years War and Napoleonic Era has added greater legitimacy to government in an age of Revolution, so there is a -3 penalty attached to the likelihood of revolts.
The Wooden Wall
The Oracle of Delphi once told Athens to seek security behind a wooden wall, and now Britain does the same. The sturdy oak has become the main construction material for sailing warships, giving British hulls added durability. Royal Navy vessels, small and large, get bonuses to their attacks.
Great Britain’s Events
Like all the Great Powers, Great Britain has been given a number of minor flavor events drawn from history. They won’t, of course, happen at precisely the same time every time you play since we don’t want the game to play out too deterministically. And, since these are flavor events, their main purpose is to add some color to the period and maybe teach you about some of the minor things going on in the country during this time period.
Here are a few examples of events Britain may experience in the game:
Lord Spencer Perceval assassinated
The Prime Minister Lord Perceval was shot through the heart in the lobby of the House of Commons by a mentally unsound man called John Bellingham. He died almost instantly, uttering the words 'I am murdered'. Bellingham gave himself up to officers.
For this event to occur, Great Britain must be at war with France, after the start of 1812 and the Prime Minister Lord Spencer Perceval must have appeared. British land and naval forces will suffer a slight morale penalty.
Horse Patrol in London
The London Horse Patrol is founded with the object of checking the increase of highway and foot-pad robberies in the neighborhood of the metropolis. The unit could now provide protection on all great roads within 20 miles of Charing Cross. This is the first formal mounted police force in the world.
This event has very simple triggers and gives the province of London greater tax income.
The Luddite Movement
Replaced with less-skilled, low-wage labour, the English textile artisans was left without work. Destroying mechanized looms were their means of protesting against the changes and thus the Luddite movement started spreading, in Nottingham at first, causing rebels to arise...
This starting event will trigger a small event series that will create revolts and unrest in Great Britain.
And that wraps it up for the land of Wellington and Nelson, Aubrey and Sharpe. Next week we’ll have a look at something almost as interesting ![]()
Cheers,
SolSara

大不列颠是让老鹰飞中可独立养成的角色之一。因为拥有有史以来最牛逼闪闪的自然边界——英吉利海峡的保护，不列颠只要穿着这条安全裤就百推不倒。七年战争的胜利奠定了大不列颠在海上的领先地位，即使失去了北美十三殖民地也不能改变这一现实。大不列颠是以海洋的统治者的身份进入拿破仑时代 ...
