@Elrood That’s somewhat true, but G is mostly a one-trick pony, take Paris. While the Centrals have won many, but not most of our games without G taking Paris, as the other players and their strategies and abilities took center stage.

@Witt @Private-Panic Being the nice guy that I am, I am notifying you that you overlooked moving UK BC & CA in sz104.
Post where you want to edit those ships, and Entek or I can do the edit. -
@fmerwinrommel Thank you “Erwin the Desert Meerkat”. (just watched a history comedy bit, of how Rommel came to his nickname. :-) )
Very generous of you, for real.

@FMErwinRommel thanks. Missed them, you are right . Will look later and ask Matt to move them, when he does Amerjca.

The Ruskies in E Poland bit me again, +4 hit differential. And got bit in the Pacific again. Last turn UK fleet almost sank my amphib fleet and this turn Guadalahara took out one of my two invaders. This really cuts my odds of surviving an American attack on Mexico City.

@Witt Ouch Leo, how am I supposed to take Paris when you build 8 HGs and 3 trenches per turn?

@dawgoneit Did you consult with Colt Turkey regarding your fleet? Did you forget to move your fleet?

At the end of game 6, we had a discussion about game results being influenced by player talent. A suggestion was made about choosing 2 captains, and they would alternate choosing players. I’ve come up with a way to implement it.
This team game is dragging at times. So, perhaps we could initiate another 1914 team game series simultaneously for those willing to play in 2 series at once; or else we could pause this series after this game and try a fixed team format.
My suggestion is 2 captains, total of 3 or 4 players per side. Entente and CP would have equal number of players. Teams would alternate games between Entente and CP; and players would rotate through the assigned positions after each game.
Every player would play each position once on both sides of the board. 6 players = 6 games in a series; 8 players 8 games. i.e., a player might be Germany 1st game, then say France, Serbia, etc in 2nd game, then Austria game 3, and Italy, Arabia, etc in game 4, and so on in a fixed rotation.
Just a thought for your consideration.
