Phase 2 Node Vassalization

So I wanted to see if Intrepid could give some insight on how vassalization can work in Phase to. And seeing as we arent confirmed or denied on adding nodes to tropics and desert I made 2 charts.

Is this correct Intrepid team? Only reason I ask is because the ZOI simulation video doesnt match up with the later explanation of what each node can control.

    its going to be interesting to see how vassaling works with such a small playable area. you can potentially have 3 T4 nodes going on the server if tropics and desert only get 1 node each and thats only if people grind in the right areas to begin with.

    however if you level up winstead first you cuck the other nodes entirely and prob end up bricking your server crafting wise till a node war happens

    The tropics and desert should be full regions with 3-5 nodes.
    Otherwise Phase 2 is going to be pretty dull, and we are much further away from release than I currently speculate.

    Looks like desert is getting 3 nodes. Nothing about tropics yet though but that alone puts the game in a far better spot

    i would assume tropics would get atleast 1 so that leaves 9 nodes minimum which is 3 vassalisation networks So atleast 3 Rank 4 and 3 nodes and 3 non village nodes. However that being said i think they would want a buffer node or 2 so would make sense that tropics has more than 1

    If they add 3 to tropics that'd leave 1 level 3 node with a vassal to compete for stage 4

    they have said the tropics are behind in terms of development so it might be less than 3 nodes however this might just be refering to POI and things and we might get 3 nodes but who knows atm
