Yep.
France 1914 By Larry Harris

no i live at the HBG site.

Not a lot new here. Portugal is French leaning…
-
I think we all knew that. But I do have to work out where “Burgundy” lies. As I suggested in a recent amendment, Paris is another space further from Berlin. Where’s a damned train when you need one…
-
Is anyone else surprised at what France was able to attack with relative to what Germany had in those territories?
-
For FRANCE! Charge!
-
If I recall germany did roll poorly on turn.

That sounds about right, now that you mentioned it. So did Austria. I think Larry used rigged dice. :-o :wink:

Map Update:
Burgundy could possibly have a border with Switzerland.
Berlin is closer to Moscow than it is to Paris!
No mention made of troops being placed in Portugal’s colonies, even though it is now at war - does France have to physically move pieces in here, or have it attacked by Germany to get these units?

Like you, I assume the Burgundy is analogous to the space marked “Champagne” on your map, especially since we can infer from Larry’s post that Picardy is adjacent to Lorraine.
Meanwhile the 6 infantry and 2 artillery in Paris territory are moved to Picardy. With them located there they can assist either the Belgian or the Lorraine front
Edit: Quick work Flashman, your post went up as I was typing this one. (edited again to fix spelling)

It looks like Germany would rather be in Lorraine than in Belguim.

Well either way is two spaces from Paris, and the british can’t land in lorraine.

Its a bit anomalous; Burgundy (the historical region) is essentially where Lorraine is on this map.
Once again the map betrays its Diplomacy origin; Lorraine has been carved out of Dip. Burgundy; Gascony renamed Bordeaux; the same ungainly mix of regional and city names for no good reason.Damn: Germany can’t use Switzerland-Marseilles to take Paris in the rear.

Is that a nipple ring on Brest, oh never mind it’s an anchor for the port
-
Berlin is closer to moscow than paris? What???
-
Stepping back a bit, this doesn’t need to be a huge deal. CP advance was much further on Russia than it was on France, obviously.
-
I’ll be playing “La Marseillaise” on my turn :-)
-
France has more battleships than Germany?
I hate to say it, but that is very historically inaccurate.

Yeah I was disappointed too. Germany has what, 2 cruiser and a BB?
-
