Politics and diplomacy in the 18th Century

After the success of Dreams of Empire, there seemed an opportunity to do a similar game in the mid 18th century. I didn’t want to do the Seven Years War as it’s mainly Frederick the Great versus pretty well everyone else so I chose an earlier setting when they were several succession crisis to provide an opening setting and reasons why a state might or might not get involved. So, as became standard for me, there’s a strong political setting from which conflict could, and often obligingly does, arise. A game and setting I’ve thought about returning to.
