About This Game
 Two centuries ago, Europe was in the midst of one of the most gripping periods in human history. It was an era that saw cobblers become princes and emperors become exiles, an age of legendary diplomats and brilliant tacticians. Listen to the roll of the drum, the call of the bugle, and see the banners unfurled above the divisions and corps. Wide-eyed recruits march next to battle-scarred veterans, sabers clatter alongside the bags of grapeshot, the wheels of hundreds of caissons rattle, as generals plan and diplomats plot, and all of Europe grasps with desperate hands for… The Crown Of Glory.

This new Emperor’s Edition is a sequel to the acclaimed Crown of Glory and improves on the original in every area, immersing the player in the epic events of the Napoleonic era. A beautiful strategic map with more than 200 provinces covers all of Europe and North Africa, with scenarios and campaigns from 1792 up to 1820. Stronger AI, a streamlined interface and a new simplified economic model to allow players to focus on the aspects of the game they most enjoy. Players take the role of one of the crowned potentates of any of the eight Major powers as well as having the option to play as a minor power such as Poland, Denmark or Portugal.

Historical leaders, special abilities, fleets, upgrades, reinforcements, colonialism, guard units and over 100 historical events, give Crown Of Glory: Emperor's Edition a unique and engrossing style. Combining Strategy and Tactics in one design, Crown Of Glory: Emperor's Edition offers you an opportunity to test your strength in an age of legends.

I own this game (both the original and upgraded EE, though I think I threw the former away as unsellable once I got the latter  :P ), but I've barely ever played it. I'm a big fan of the Civil War game the devs released between these editions, Forge of Freedom, from which the EE borrows some updates. CoG:EE is necessarily a much more involved game than FoF, of course: the multiple nations make sure of that! (Also the physically larger scope.)

I'm in the same boat, own it/never really got into it/loved the Civil War version. I was almost going to try and get into it around a month ago. But something else attracted my attention and I never got around to it.

How to fix missing regional bonus units

By: lucr41


Problem:
It is not possible to receive regional bonus units from most Regions during the annual spring levee. Only the Kingdom of Naples seems to yield these units.

Cause:
The problem resides in the COG2Regions.txt file, which defines the provinces required for each Region. It appears this file was ported over from First Edition CoG as is, without being modified to take into account the many changes to provinces in the updated COGEE map.

Fix:
I have modified this file to correct these errors. I have attached a replacement file.

Some of my changes are open to debate as I tried to make the Region definitions historically accurate. Most regions historically had a starting set of territories, to which more was added over time. It is a bit difficult to draw a line for game purposes. My attempt was to define the Region with the historical starting set of provinces and leave it to the player to add more provinces, if desired.

Modifications:
- Duchy of Warsaw: removed Krakow (182) as a required province, and added Petrokov (259)
- Kingdom of Bavaria: removed Tyrolia (125) as a required province, and added Augsburg (235)
- Kingdom of Naples: added Abruzzi (231) as a required province
- Kingdom of Italy: removed Carniola (123) and Parma (210) as required provinces and added Romagna (229)
- Confederation of Rhine: removed Westphalia (140) as home province, and added Hesse (145)
- Confederation of Rhine: added Upper Palatinate (211), Munich (147), Augsburg (235), Nassau (233), Wurzburg (234) and Lusatia (257) as required provinces
- Kingdom of Serbia: added Serbia (203) as home province
- Kingdom of Serbia: added Belgrade (245) and Nish (100) as required provinces
- set regional bonus units for Kingdom of Serbia as 1 Infantry and 1 Irregular Cavalry
