Looking forward to it!

It only delays the inevitable. People will pussy out from actually going to war, because they remember all the risk games where the first person to act was always the first to die, so they'll keep building factories and increasing their population, so their force limit will increase, and then have a naval arms race that way.
Surprised to see so much conservative player, the earlier comment that the Great Powers are simply seeking to maintain Great Power status may be correct.
There are two Regional Powers that are on the cusp of taking one of the Great Powers spots though. Could easily be done by 1840, if either of those two nations played their cards right.
HEY LOOK A PREVIEW OF THE UPCOMING SUMMER 1836 UPDATE. Yay for Braiyusal.
Crap, I am so behind. I need to get a post out and soon.
