I'm curious as to the experience of those who have actually played the board game. What occurs more commonly:
1) A general France v. Coalition war breaks out early with other countries joining the fray or starting there own war.
2) The countries sit back, build up their armies, accumulate minors and not make war until some time has passed.
What has the effect of either of the above occuring had on game play.
Personally I believe that the dynamics of the game would compel #1 to occur more often but in practice is seems that #2 is more common. It seems that people desire to treat the game as an "Empire-building" exercise causes them to not pay as much attention to the VP race. Though I could certainly see how #2 is more viable with the full-scale, 10 year, Grand Campaign game as opposed to the 3 yr 1805-1807 scenario.
