@Elrood That’s somewhat true, but G is mostly a one-trick pony, take Paris. While the Centrals have won many, but not most of our games without G taking Paris, as the other players and their strategies and abilities took center stage.

PC crashed mid-turn. Not done any combats but had discovered bunkers. Nevertheless will start again from scratch and ignore that.
-
Ha! Railway guns this time!
-
Wow Adam, looks like marti throws some candy rolls away.
I did a discovery as well and you two times in a row now.
So don’t attack this turn it might Hits you back 😜 -
@aequitas-et-veritas Russia is defending its borders. My allies can do all the actual fighting!
-
@private-panic Whom do you have in mind?
French is still on the defense. Italy is confined. US cannot get Germany out of Mexico. Serbia is gone. Arabs are gone.
Britain has a lot on its plate…I say it is time the Russian bear is moving already! :-D

The Entente has high 40’s easy income from Africa. G can’t be distracted from priority in Europe by spending too much in DarES, and once G is contained there, Entente’s only other garrison requirement is Cairo. CP is best suited for land warfare and can’t afford to try to achieve naval superiority in Med. Perhaps African colony income should be an area of consideration to rebalance the game. G in DarES makes for interesting variety in game play, but CP needs another avenue to challenge the golden goose of the Entente.
-
@fmerwinrommel The game is generally decided by around turn 10 on whether the CPs have expanded enough usually into either France/Russia/Italy to get close to income parity. If they do then the game tends to open up some, if they don’t then it ends up the CP just defend their territory for a while til the Entente have overwhelming numbers.
-
@redrum Does that mean the game is virtually over?
-
@elrood Based on past games and assuming no major Entente mistakes, yes. CPs don’t really have much opportunity left to increase their income as almost all fronts have now stabilized.
-
@redrum We knew from the opening that the odds were against us. Your analysis is correct. But, it ain’t over till the fat lady sings, or as Yogi Berra, catcher for the NY Yankees (1946-63) said, It ain’t over till its over (also a song).

@elrood said in NML 1914 - Team Game #3:
I say it is time the Russian bear is moving already! :-D
Are you saying that we cannot rely on @redrum 's Brits to win this game for us? :thinking_face:
-
I say let sleeping bears lie (down).

@Private-Panic : Wakey Wakey, hands off snakey!

Everybody that’s rolled for tech dice has working women except for Witt and me. If my teammates’ tech luck would just rub off on me, I would save a lot of cash every turn on my purchases.

I’m back working in the office Mondays and Tuesdays so I’ll be a bit slower taking my turns. I’ll try to do my go when I get home tonight
