Larry Harris 1914 Tournament Rules ( "potential rules" using his language)

@Patchman123 I think that the szs should be either
ankara, sevastopol+rum and constantinople+bulg

Constantinople+Ankara+bulgaria, Sevastopol+romania (this way i think it is in oob)

The one for bulgaria+romania is unnecessary. Ottoman fleet, while exposed should be able to protect either Constantinople and Ankara at the same time or separately.

Krieghung, thanks for the quick response.  That poor Russian battleship in SZ12 has to thread the needle through SZ11 and SZ10 even if there are no ships there and I guess once the UK Navy is gone in SZ29, you just need to start ground pounding your way through Ottoman to get into the fight.

One last shot. The role of the neutrals is graciously being played by an old set of WW11 Russian infantry and artillery that I painted black.

In my opinion it is impossible for the CPs to win without the Russian Revolution rules (still super hard with them). Be sure however, to allow the Central Powers to decline the armistice if they wish, as detailed in the errata.

Thanks  :-)

On a side note: the 2 movement rule seems to better the central powers on the Eastern front but might allow the allies to put pressure on the Germans right away

It’s actually the other way around. Once you have played a few games you’ll see.

I raised Don Rae. But he hatched after 1987. Soon after that he made the fryer…into nuggets and finally the sewer system.

Since Germany has an inferior naval deployment, the retreat rules make sense to give them some flexibility.
