NML 1914 Team Game 7
-
Rules question: Several times I’ve playtested or in a game tried to blitz a mobile cav through 2 enemy territories and then return to the first territory that I moved thru; but the AI won’t let me. I can continue on to blitz thru a third enemy territory; or into a different territory that another of my cavs passed through. I just can’t retreat. What gives?

@Private-Panic Brits finally decided they needed boots on the ground to contest Scand, more than they needed more ships. I wish I could end the naval arms race, but I can’t have UK send 4 transports and 5 bombarders every turn against Scand. And I have lots of cash, and Kaiser Wilhelm loves his navy as much as George V.
Germans are popping up everywhere, like dandelions after a spring rain. Behind every bush, under your child’s bed at night. “Catch us if you can” (Dave Clark Five). You’ll really be in trouble when we train our cavalry to swim the Channel.
At the end of 6 rounds, CP have virtually caught up to Entente in cash and production. And Round 7 will see some major objectives conquered.

@Witt Please move 1 Ger infantry from Champagne > Franche C.

@fmerwinrommel did you forget to move tyrol gun?

@colt45554 No, it’s in reserve.

Please use this save game, I moved the infantry, plus 2 HG from Belgium -
@fmerwinrommel did they have the relevant travel documents ? I might have to ask them to move back over the border. We take the EU block seriously in Paris.

@FMErwinRommel can Adam move my noble French ships out of harm’s way ok his go, please ?

No, you must decide whether to move your ships before Adam rolls any dice. Make your decision before Austria goes.
-
@Witt Your ships can’t retroactively decide whether to move or not, based on the results of a future tech dice result. We’ll wait if you want to consult now with Adam. Just let us know.
It’d be a shame to lose what’s left of your navy.Battle of the techs: Germans got mobile tech to blitz thru 3 empty African territories; and you got bunker tech that lets empty trenches fight back. It cost you 12 quid this round and 12 quid last round. Spoilsport, I so wanted to blitz thru the Sahara on my camels.

@fmerwinrommel I am the world’s biggest spoilsport . Ask anyone .
@dawgoneit Please leave my CR where it is , but move the Battlecruiser to the Channel.

@Witt I say old chap, but some gopher has been digging holes all over western Africa. I’ve heard of Leo the lion, but Leo the gopher? We’ll have to put down some poison bait or hire Chevy Chase from “Caddyshack” (1980).
