@The_Good_Captain I think it is time to concede. I could build little infantry stacks around Vienna and Constantinople, but, to quote Paul Revere, the British are coming, and there isn’t much I can do about that. Good game, and you got me good with those sneaky, expeditious British.

gg to you too - the CP are very unforgiving even with the adjustments and in the downloadable document I made (and in my post on the forums here) I went as far to add one further adjustment - taking off a certain amount of Russian infantry from the at start setup. We weren’t sure how many would be best but I intentionally left that open ended bc experience can cut both ways.
