NML 1914: 3 Americans (Centrals) vs 3 Brits (Entente) #2

I would jhabe loved to have brought over the Canadians, but there were 6 Subs there and no DDs or TTs on R1. I thjnk I did s gokd koc as England . Perhaps not Russia . I wanted to contain the Commies and keep that threat away, but they got Victory Bonds, So had more income than they should have had.
I do think the CPs Habe been helped too much this time amd the Allies crippled with the changes. I am happy to try them again though, as I like to fight a losing battle.

@redrum I Have instructed my learned friend to consider Germany, so he can emulate your success and feel a man again.
No word from Colin, but I am sure he will play Witt is again.
Enjoy your Sunday, guys.

Either set of countries works for me, I’m not picky

I think I’ll try UK/Italy…

PP says he would like to see me fail as the Germans, which I am fully prepared to do, as an avid historian. He will take the Commies and Turks, whilst Colin will be Austria.
I will do Germany within a few hours amd won’t go all out for Paris, as that is yukky and not kind (in the words of my 3 year old).

Not a bad start. Shame the Russians were expecting us in E Poland. We were caught pants down there!

yeah…I saw that. I’ll remember to keep that in mind while planning to destroy the German navy.

@redrum You are spoiling the surprise. Merchant Marine is better discovered, when you can’t find your fleet anywhere on the map.
I checked and yohr G1 was fractionally better.
Yoh failed to sink te French Cruiser off West Africa, attacking with just the one Sub , but you did take out the three UK ships off Gib, which I left afloat.
Amd on land, I lost a battle. You did not.
TUV difference was about 10 better for you.

Never. I subscribe to Emperor Wilhelm’s thinking: Battleships, Battleships, Battleships!

@redrum ever the lucky one : Armour in Attack amd Inf in defence. Nice!
