How does the Stage II escalation (flag) effect for Brandenburg-Prussia work? Which lands can I add a town to?
First, you check each board (section of the map) to see if there is at least one Town or City. (Usually, there will be.) Then pick one land on that board that doesn't currently have a Town in it, and add a Town there.
The new Town can be where the Invaders already are (with Explorers and/or Cities), or can be well away from any existing Invaders. If there are no lands without Towns on the board, then no new Town is added.
This happens before the actual Exploration, so the Prussians might Explore from the Town that you just added.
You can choose the position of the Town to be best for you (and it's expect you will—otherwise it would be too punishing).
