Might be worth a go, wink wink nudge nudge.

Additionally, France and Britain have more majors and minors either directly bordering them or within their sphere of influence than the Eastern powers. So, having a little extra in the way of wealth allows them to exert additional influence over the potential pressures surrounding them.
I would lean toward making bids default to control rather than neutrality since that seems to be the preference based upon the subsidies spent in this test run (and I think that may continue since control is more certain than buying a major or minor's apathy in order to conquer its centers). Are there any opinions on this? Honestly, I would still prefer if players were required to state explicitly whether they wish to control or to secure neutrality which would allow for purposefully invalid bids in case players desire to be intentionally deceitful in reneging on promised assistance to other players.
