Taking out that nasty tank stack felt good, it was haunting me since the siege of moscow!
But I actually wondered during Anzacs turn what you would do about these units… if you’d send in more minors to defend the stack of German tanks or leave the Germans to die alone.

@elrood I agree. I suggest that Turkey get a free tech at the start. Austria doesn’t need any special help against F/S. :blush: Yes, when the sides were reversed, I gave Austria a hard time, but in the end, it just prolonged the inevitable. I don’t expect a R collapse this time, so Austria will have a harder time against F & I, but we shall still prevail eventually.

Playing the Turks.

@fmerwinrommel I do not think a Tech will cut it for Turks… the one I had was not usable while the game was still ongoing.
I would not mind Turks having some extra units at the start.
-
I mean, Ron as Germany singlehandedly defeated Entente last game… what Austria and Turks did was inconsequential, at best.

I wouldn’t say that.
It was more like a Kentucky shuffle 🤣 -
@aequitas-et-veritas Let me be more verbose then ;-)
Ron won the game despite Kevin playing Kentucky shuffle with Serbs and me playing Battleship with France. :-D -
Private-Panic - Russia
redrum - UK
Entek - USA
FMErwinRommel - Austria
Elrood - France / Serbia
aequitas-et-veritas
witt - Germany
dawgoneit - Italy / ArabiaWitt chose Germany, leaving Italy for dawg.
So, what you guys say to give Centrals sth. nice? Ron? I know that Witt is too stubborn to accept something for Germany (although an IC would be nice), but Kevin could benefit from it.
E.g. that tech where IC can produce 2 more units than usual. Plus maybe 3 Inf to place at his leisure… so the presence of a “bid” can be felt.
Any opinions?
-
As I intimated last time, IMHO the best way to even up the game would be for redrum and Elrood to stop teaming up!
G vs F should be interesting in this game. We will see what Witt’s G can do.
Although I have not played 1914 very much in recent times, my memory of the game following the changes brought in by redrum and co a while back is that the CP position was much improved. G also has a decent crack at getting Armour early on, which seemed to make them unstoppable. Of course, I bow to the superior knowledge of those who made the last set of changes to the standard set up.

@private-panic That almost seems like another compliment! That would be 2 in just a few weeks!
Balance in these team games tends to favor Entente so I prefer to give the CPs a small bid (though CPs have won 2 straight with very different strategies). My recommendation would be to just give the CPs a bid that they can spend on units or tech that any nation except Germany can use as I think any bonus to Germany would make it too easy to run over France. I would probably start with something like 10-15 PUs.

For your convenience I will edit the following:
IC tech for Turks.
3 inf added to turks at the 3 ICs it has -
@witt Why did you take 10 PU away from G. Did you intend to spend it on tech? If so, I didn’t see any such edit.
