@simon-tressel Hi Simon. Welcome to our team games. Where are you from?

@simon-tressel said in NML 1914 team game 16:

Thanks! I’m from Canada (Northern British Columbia).

Ahhh! Now I know!

[Elrood]

Also, I never said the game was well balanced. But I think the problem is to deep within the setting itself. The actual conflict was stale and boring! No grand maneuvers or essential battles.
They rather blew up mountains back in the day rather than relying on strategy or tactics, for crying out loud.
I believe we cannot fix it with any means which do not destroy your holy “historical accuracy” as well! :-P

BTW, I didn’t roll forum dice correctly on G5 for sz73 battle. I typed dice 1d2 for G sub, which was its attack power, and 1d4 for UK cruiser which was its defense power. Should have been 1d6 for six-sided dice.
G sub [1d6]
UK cruiser [1d6]

[FMErwinRommel]

G sub [dice 1d6]
UK cruiser [dice 1d6]

[dicebot]

1d6: 2
1d6: 4

[FMErwinRommel]

Not that it matters, but I wanted to set the record straight. Turns out, the same results, the G sub sank the UK cruiser.

[Witt]

@FMErwinRommel thanks for rolling for us .
I did think you had misrolled that Sub sneak , but kept my trap shut , as it was Game Over .

I will take Turkey and conquer all of the ME , whilst my worthless Commies embarrass a sick, ageing , Russian Empire.

[Elrood]

@Witt I wouldn’t have minded to see how situation around Alps and Greece unfolds… I did some unusual moves and wanted to see what they merit (can I say it like this? uncertain), but sure… once Paris falls it is hard to play on.

[Witt]

@Elrood just needed the past tense : unfolded . Otherwise , made sense.

[Witt]

And : seeing …

[Witt]

@Entek Afsm will take Austria. .

[Entek]

@Private-Panic you’re up

I’ll go US
