NML 1914 game 13

@Witt said in NML 1914 game 13:

@dawgoneit Bloody Hell!
How unlucky.
@dawgoneit
Yes, 78% odds on Belarus. But Ruskies were mostly conscripts (20) which have no offense except support from art, and R only had 2 art. R offensive power was only 13 and Austrian defense 32. In first 4 rounds, Austria rolled a little above average, and Rus a little below. R’s offense didn’t decline, but the lack of offense meant A’s defense didn’t decline enough. Round 5 was very lopsided in favor of Austria. Dawg just waited too long to retreat.

@FMErwinRommel Do Entente have any techs yet?

Brits have 2 and France discovered one. Poor Turks have to face UK with only the bid tech.

@Elrood please use this one.Edited Aus-5.tsvg

@FMErwinRommel I did ask for my Cairo TT to move south to Saudi waters . Seb will do this edit and move the Serbian Cruiser and French TT to my fleet off Greece.
Hope that is okay. .
I do want to move the Pacific fleet too , as Adam asked earlier .

@Witt Okay with me for @Elrood to make the edits you posted and to edit the French fleet in Pacific…

@Elrood @Witt Elrood made the correct decision not to edit French transport from sz70 as requested by Witt, because it had already moved from sz59 to sz70 convoying French colonial from Tunisia > Cairo.
Question, does this change your decision regarding your other edited moves?

I will roll for T tech to plan my turn and await your response.

@FMErwinRommel hi. Amd thanks for asking , but I realised this afterwards , but it can’t be helped . Enjoy sinking the Frencj TT.
I will get you back!

Do continue . I can do Britain, when I finish work .

@Witt Turk-5.tsvg
Sorry, ended turn before calling up and copying turn history.
Bring on those Sepoys

@dawgoneit Turkey demands Anschluss with Turkmenistan to end the Russian persecution of Turks there and unite all Turks with the Fatherland (okay, that last part was written by German military advisors).

@FMErwinRommel Sounds to me like the Turks want to join the Russians. I can understand why you would want to join us and take out the Germans.

@dawgoneit A while back In my history readings I read that the southern steppes tribal peoples such as the ancestorial relatives of Turks, accepted Islam as it spread, but the northern tribes didn’t because they wouldn’t give up alcohol/hard liquor, which helped them get through the bitter cold winters. Sounds plausible, as Russians are also known as heavy drinkers.
