@wittmann:

You are the exception to the rule BJCard!
You would have done differently, but were unable to.

Fair enough!

Seems fair about editing as it was, but my move would have been different.

BJCard

Seems that the easiest way is to just continue from the France re-do turn. Spain up next.

BJCard

Interesting story, thanks. Weird that artillery strikes are treated kinder by the public than drone strikes, despite the higher death toll.

Is it better to fire RPGs indiscriminately into Israel or use a drone strike to target a specific individual?

BJCard

Good point on the UK hitting France instead of Sweden. Didn’t think about that.

Spain definitely needs that convoy box, otherwise it is impotent with the -10 PU handicap it has.

BJCard

Yes, similar to all of the ‘Plan colors’ of the US military from the beginning of the 20th century. The US even had a plan to fight the UK.

BJCard

Med defense plan?

I’m not sure a comparison of navies is accurate because all of your Navy is under one flag. My Swedish Navy cannot stray far from the Baltic and my Spanish one cannot stray far from Gibraltar. At least for now.

You can say I’m winning, and I may be because of Prussia, but France is spread as thin as can be. Not sure I can do anything with France other than take more of the Mid East and defend France/Italy/Kongsiberg.

Spain is going to be challenging Britain for the seas. Will be buying lots of ships with them, forcing England to do the same.

I cannot push on Austria anywhere- not enough French or Ottoman troops to do so right now.

The Ottoman has its hands full with Russia.

Anyway, it has been a fun game with the initiative swinging back and forth. A couple turns ago I thought for sure I was losing, now I have a slight edge. We will see where it will be in a couple more turns.

BJCard

I’ve offered up options as well, I think it is up to the Ottomans.

Well, the only difference I would have made is take Galicia for free. Right now it shows Prussia and ottoman as ‘ceasefire.’

I can re-do my turn or we can leave it be. I do not think we can change politics until the next turn. We could start over with France again. I’m the new guy to this group, so whatever you guys want to do.

BJCard

Well, I never said I was trying to spread democracy. I can’t help it that politicians use the word ‘democracy’ for any form of government that has some sort of meaningful voting.

Hard to say if Democracy would be a good thing. Even less would get done around here if all 300 million+ Americans had to vote on everything.

BJCard

I will check tonight if it would have changed anything. I’m not sure right now without seeing the map.

BJCard

@Gargantua:

@Jermofoot:

Stupidity is a weapon…

That’s called democracy.

Its good that we (the US) are in a constitutional republic then.

BJCard

It wasn’t minor to the French cause! They are now unable to aid the Ottomans!

BJCard

No, when I did my Prussian turn I was at a ceasefire with the Ottoman- I could not attack any Ottoman territory.

BJCard

Well, we will see how much France can afford to reinforce Prussia along with Paris, Rome, and Egypt.

You already had something happen in the Med… remember the East Med Naval battle? :-D

BJCard

@pr0c3ss:

The Ottomans will stab you in the back BJ!

Lol, they already did.

BJCard

So, am I not at war with the Ottoman until his turn?
