I’m both busy and not emotionally ready too do the next turn.

Not sure that it did, sadly. We’ll see how the rest of turns 2/3 go, though. That German Navy could cause problems.

French regular : -1.33 Germans regular : -0.67 British regular : 1.00I don’t know how to avoid combat in contested territories as stated in the rules, so I let the combat happen and then added any lost infantry back into the territory. If I made a some sort of mistake then please tell me. Also, I think we said we are playing the Russian Revolution, if so then I’ll let you edit them, if not true then I guess it is game over lol.
I blundered my opening against Russia by not reinforcing my armies so i then changed my focus away from Russia. I divided my Austrian army to split your forces between defending adjacent territories and the possibility of destroying stranded units. It has worked, but it was not my original plan.

What I do is this:
-
Do moves as desired.
-
During the “Combat Move Phase” go into Edit Mode and edit the stuff out. Make sure to turn off edit mode before doing anything else or else it will be glitched.
-
The combat will be skipped.
-
During the “Noncombat Move Phase” go back into Edit Mode and Edit your pieces back in.
What you did is also fine.
Also, I think we said we are playing the Russian Revolution, if so then I’ll let you edit them, if not true then I guess it is game over lol.
The RR, unfortunately, does not fire at this time. See the relevant bit in the Rulebook Circled and in-Red:
The Rulebook said in DoManMacgee (E) Vs. King of Tanks (CP) - 1914 - Test Game for CP -> India push:
“The revolution will occur at the end any Russian turn starting in round four if Russia is losing the war. Russia will be
considered to be losing the war if all of the following conditions are met:
• Three or more territories adjacent to Moscow are controlled by the Central Powers.
• At least one other original Russian territory is controlled by the Central Powers or contested.
• Moscow is controlled by Russia or contested.”As it is currently both not Round 4 (or later) and not the end of Russia’s turn, the RR does not fire. If you want, you can either redo Germany’s turn, go back and redo AH’s turn 2, or we can restart the game as a whole if you feel that your strategy was completely thrown out the window by this detail in the rules.
I blundered my opening against Russia by not reinforcing my armies so i then changed my focus away from Russia. I divided my Austrian army to split your forces between defending adjacent territories and the possibility of destroying stranded units. It has worked, but it was not my original plan.
You did get the bulk of the Soviet Army out of position but if my calcs are right they’ll make it back to Moscow to either successfully defend against your attack or kill a large number of CP Units trying.

@DoManMacgee Yeah ok, I guess I never read the rules properly and just focused on the three dot points. If it’s alright With you I would prefer to restart the game as I have played poorly so far and am in no position to win.
-
@King_Of_Tanks Yeah NP man. The RR rules as-written are an incoherent mess so I totally get it.
Make a new thread and we’ll get it going again.

Gents,
I have created a modification to the World War I 1914 that includes many improvements to the module. It has a lot of bug fixes and also includes an automatic russian revolution. You can download it here:
https://github.com/VictoryFirst2/world-war-i-1914-improved
I can assure you it will massively improve the game experience 😁
Among other things, the contested battles automatically starting has been fixed. -
If you guys want to play with The Good Captain’s balancing rules, you should download this version: https://github.com/VictoryFirst2/World-War-I-1914-Balanced

Nice! I don’t think I have this yet. Thanks for sharing it!
