Adjusting of Claims
-Rio de la Plata Delta
-A fuck ton of tiny shitty atlantic islands
-Las Malvinas
Also you've forgotten my African trading posts of Mogadishu, Lindi, Lagos,
and my Indian possessions of Bombay *Made before Gtech so don't worry there.

Nobody gonna mention the random expansion of his South African claims?

Can you note the word Adjusting, as in addition, after I didn't realize all of my previous colonies were claimed under Spain

*American reservation was under UKs reservation, which was a lot older then yours

*You new map diden't have those extra Africa possessions as far as I saw

*Muhgals are accepted before your reservation was acknowledged by OP. Also, rule of thumb; colonial trading ports in Africa and Asia need a fort/factory and soldiers there to work. You basically just admitted you don't plan on manning Bombay at least.

What exactly is the point of a reservation then anyways? If I reserved it in a post before his, it should go to me, There was no rule to the contrary in the OP, regardless of which app was done first. The point of a reservation is to reserve land, It should not matter as Bombay was in my original reserving map that had no conflicts with anyone. And on the soldiers thing, come on we both know I was joking when I used to be clear here, a Greentext arrow, I obviously have men there.

Also which African territories are the issue here?

Let's lawyer this then, *Muhgals are accepted before your reservation was acknowledged by OP. Also, rule of thumb; colonial trading ports in Africa and Asia need a fort/factory and soldiers there to work. You basically just admitted you don't plan on manning Bombay at least.

Yes, there's no official rule by the OP contradicting you... or supporting you, which means GTech's claim is (as far as the rules are considered) equal to yours. Therefore, I have to make a decision as to how I represent things on the map, as having it owned by two factions would be impossible and create major confusion, and the best way to do that in my opinion was to take PLessur's "Official" acceptances/reservations in the OP as the baseline . If PLessur or Liecthenbourg weighs in otherwise, I'll be more then happy to change the map to reflect that.

(Though, if I may give my honest opintion, with the Dutch specifically the map is starting to look a bit absurd. People just sticking minor claims on plots of land with no rhyme of reason. The New World actually looks quite clean and sensible, but Africa and Asia are increasingly looking becoming messes of "Age of Imperialism being completed by 1760"

The above is rather true.

That being said, the most vital question I have rn is if Italys South Africa colony is stationing troops. If it is it could cause trouble, if not then I will likely take it.

Even at the expense of likely invasion. Kaapkolonie for Kaapkoloniers.
