NML 1914 game 13

@Witt said in NML 1914 game 13:

@captainwalker Adam spotted that I didn’t pick up his 4 Ground troops on the Mariana Islands . Would you mind editing them to Honolulu, please?

For context, Elrood edited 2 F tt’s from Marianas > Honolulu at end of Austria’s turn. So, the F troops could/should have been edited to be convoyed with the F transports but were overlooked. Sounds like a valid request.

@FMErwinRommel that is why I do not like editing someones elses troops!

UK’s lopsided win in Stockholm with 50/50 odds and no bombardment, was a significant benefit to UK/Rus. If it had been lopsided in G’s favor, with 4 Ger troops in Stockholm instead of UK troops, R would have had to garrison in Sweden instead of returning home. G could have built trenches and even an IC before UK could get more troops in position for another attack. And UK would not have had any troops to threaten G Baltic coast this round.

This would have been a game changer in this theater of operations.

@FMErwinRommel funny you say that, I ran a local run when Witt told me his plan and my attack failed profoundly and all 4 Germans survived that battle…

I am travelling at the moment, but hope to do my turn at some point

@Entek please edit the 2 French Inf and all 5 Cav to Uganda . Thanks .

@Entek only 4 cav can move W Sudan > Uganda, as one already moved from Eritrea > W Sudan this turn.

@FMErwinRommel thanks for thr correction.

@Private-Panic Moving back to Bulgaria? This has got to stop.

Be careful with your use of African tribal names in this game. The British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) just changed the rating of classic film “Mary Poppins” (1964) from U (Universal) to PG (parental guidance) because Mary’s neighbor Admiral Boom, called the chimney sweeps “Hottentots”. Oh the horror, scarred for life. Politically correctness knows no end.

@Witt Is the Indian army feeling lucky? Care to take on the Turkish horde that stretches as Fars as the eye can see? Even trenches won’t save you. Abandon Sistan or the bones of your army will bleach in the sands of the Iranian desert.
