Doing the German turn now, did one battle and realized I forgot to move a German sub. I will move it to join the attack in the Strait of Gibraltar. I will roll that battle with the dice bot. Sorry.

Wow, those guys are gonna get promoted 😁

Since all subs died they will all fire back at 2

Not sure what happened but I wanted to spend the rest of the American income on S. bombers but I ended up buying none of them, so I edited that at the end (probably clicked on the down arrow instead of the up arrow 😅)

OK so the sea battle near Gibraltar didn’t really matter as I got a hit and you didn’t, so the sub would not have had an effect on the battle.

Lol, that was quite the aggressive G1. Lost a bunch of submarines and two planes which is pretty bad but we’ll see how it plays out!

Savegame

@Stucifer Of course! I thought you weren’t able to move them for some reason., but Russia literally goes before Germany which I didn’t think about. In that case I would have walked one infantry into France and the other three to Berlin. The fighters can stay where they are.

@The_Good_Captain

Thank you for pointing that out. I was mindlessly pressing space bar in all those battles and didn’t realize you had the option to save a DD over a BB, I will keep that in mind in the future.

Thank you very much for your openness and honesty. That fighter will help soothe the pain from the North Sea battle 😀

@Panzerstahl-Helm @barnee

Lol, Yunnan always seems to hit heavy. This game is no exception 😀

Heh heh no worries. That’s a rough start but dice always tend to average out over time. There will surely will be some battles where you roll exceptionally well 😀

Alright, just copied the board state. New save file is here:

Will do my Allied turn tomorrow. This copying was quite intensive lol

@DoManMacgee @King_Of_Tanks

Gents,

I have created a modification to the World War I 1914 that includes many improvements to the module. It has a lot of bug fixes and also includes an automatic russian revolution. You can download it here:

https://github.com/VictoryFirst2/world-war-i-1914-improved

I can assure you it will massively improve the game experience 😁
Among other things, the contested battles automatically starting has been fixed.

If you guys want to play with The Good Captain’s balancing rules, you should download this version: https://github.com/VictoryFirst2/World-War-I-1914-Balanced

Yes, I can see the thunderclouds forming above Moscow… those bad dice were devastating for the Russians.

Would you like to continue this game? Personally I prefer to start a new one because I think this game is over. Moscow is probably going to fall on G4 and if not then definitely on G5 (however, that might not be a certainty if you roll exceptionally well and I exceptionally bad, so if you want we can still play on and see what happens. Either way is fine).

Sure you can be the Allies again. I hope the dice are with you this time! 😀

Awesome, I’ll set us up and you can do your G1. Did you see the Europe 1.5 version?

@kwaspek104

Let me rephrase that: save the DD as long as there are subs present.

@kwaspek104

Lol, in my solo games, Moscow usually falls on G8. I had one game where it was G10 but in that game I only built fighters as the Western Allies and flew them over to Moscow, which doesn’t give them a chance for victory it seems, it just prolongs the game. I could show you my Germany strategy. We can start a game right away if you feel something for playing two games at the same time with me 😂

@The_Good_Captain

Sorry, I am going to change that too. It will be 4 inf in Belorussia, that is my final decision (still figuring out what the best Allied bid is).

@The_Good_Captain

Lol good we haven’t started yet because I am going to change my bid one more time 😂 3 artillery in Belorussia! If I now change my mind I am going to join the army!

@kwaspek104

Fight to the death

Hi, sorry for the delay. I forgot about this. I am playing too many games. I’ll see if I can get the italians out this evening.

@kwaspek104

Hehe thanks for playing 😀 These games are fun! Let’s go again indeed, however are you OK if we wait a day or two until the Middle East penalty has been implemented?
