NML 1914 - Team Game #4

@elrood @Witt G’s battle dice were bad, but the actual results weren’t as bad. Also, G got Industry tech, very useful, increasing build capacity on W. Front, GNG and Dar ES. Surviving units in Warsaw = battle calc. G attack on Belarus was only 40% chance, and R won with units left = to battle calc. France lost more cav than battle calc predicted taking Fezzan. Granted, G Belgium units left were 5 less than battle calc. UK could only have convoyed 2 units out, so I chose to spend and make you pay dearly, rather than leave just a weak garrison to die. Could have used that cash for India, but it paid off in Belgium.

@Private-Panic Adam, you’re up as Austria.

@fmerwinrommel Out all day yesterday and again this morning. Hope to get a chance later today.

@elrood Actually I was playing croquet followed by dining and wining (plus port) yesterday and putting up village marquees this morning for our village jubilee picnic tomorrow. Perhaps even more stereotypical/comical then you anticipated? :thinking_face:

@Private-Panic Submerge? austria-2.tsvg

@redrum Are you attacking with all 4 Italian ships? If so, please submerge. If not, then stay and fight.

arabia-2.tsvg

Yeah, all 4 so submerged it. You still got a good result.

@FMErwinRommel Goa is the new Mexico City. .tsvg

@witt Goa is the new Mexico City. I wouldn’t goa that far. How about Mexico City on $5 a day? Removing your FG to attack Basra paid off with good shooting on your part. Perhaps you think you’re the new Alexander the Great?

@elrood said in NML 1914 - Team Game #4:

@redrum well this is done.
This game could go either way. It may be like the first team game, when G almost took Paris, stalled, then just held off the Entente, while his teammates got all the glory and empire from the early collapse of Russia. It may be another boring slog for you, but your teammates appear to be enjoying their successful early aggressive moves.

Are we waiting for @Entek to do Russia?

@private-panic yes. He can’t really play on Monday or Tuesday , as he has to go into the office and he is tired when he gets back from the long commute.

@entek Ouch, 0-19 offense turned a 98% odds into a loss. Are you buying your ammo from the same place Elrood is?
R always looks weak at the opening. But once it consolidates its forces and spends its large income, its stronger than it looks initially.
