oh, didnt know there was a xml questions thread. And which maps? and im not talking about decay, im talking about something like this:

Code: Select all

<continent>
   <name>NAME HERE</name>
   <bonus>-1 (negative 1, this in () not included in the code)</bonus>
   <components>
      <territory>NAME</territory>
   </components>
</continent>

no, cause with the min reinforcements tag you can set it so that people can have a minnimum of 1 army to deploy.

[yeti_c]

No no no.

Continental bonuses - and Terriorial bonuses are not reflected in the reinforcements bonus.
