@Flashman:

Yup that worked.  Thanks.

Several times the read more button seemed to disappear for me too, but if I hit the browser’s back button and then clicked the link for Preview 5, it always reappeared where I expected it to be.

When on mobile, switching to desktop mode fixed it for me.

What do you feel worked better as the CP this time?

[djensen]

Focused on Russia, a little attention on Italy. The big part was that I put just enough forces on the Western Front not too many and not too few. You can’t go for Paris, it’s just too difficult but you can go for Moscow.

1. Moscow
2. Rome
3. Paris

If you capture 1 and 2, then your opponent will probably surrender.

But he’d be an idiot. The Allies can still win from here with America at full shuck.

I suppose it depends on how the Ottomans held up at that point to decide whether the game goes to the Centrals or if it should go on.

[Flashman]

Also, if you were using the Russian Revolution rules, the Allies were puddings for not manipulating a revolution to deny you Moscow.

[Cyprian]

I noticed the allies went through the bosphoros straights and dropped off units in Romania.  Is that allowed in the rules?  If so, it would seem the CP have to really worry about Gallipoli style landings everywhere.

You’d have to make SZ 20 two zones for Constantinople to be able to block movement like Suez.
