What are some good strategies for each nation?

@Eqqman

Oh shoot, sorry, you’re right, I read it wrong.

Hey folks,
I saw an old post (2014) by Soup76 about his 1914 reference cards, and I am wondering if they are still available, or anything similar?

Thanks!

@drsnidely:

I’m not an expert either, but I disagree that fighters are a luxury. I think they’re absolutely essential, unless you just want to throw infantry into the meat grinder. I agree with most of the rest though.

Fighters are not a luxury. You defiantly need fighters.

@DessertFox599:

Going full Russia in my experience is a standard play by the Cp. All of them are bordering Russia, and it becomes a meatgrinder in our games in which Russia has two or three battles (one for each power), or one or two battles with a combination of Austria and Germany. Ive even had battles with all 3 cps in there. Its not too difficult to defeat Russia especially with the tourney rules i always play with. France is fun for me cause you gotta think outside the box.

I usually set “Traps” as Russia. It draws as many units as possible into the Eastern Front long enough for America to land in force in France.

Austria has some tough decisions to make in the first Rounds. This will tell the story of the game.

British second
Germans third

French guns should be built in France. If the French player wants to give them to Belgium he needs to move them there.

But can you make out the SZ borders?

@oztea:

France
A Matter of Pride

Depending on how detailed the game map is, it might be possible to create some sort of national objective relating to France’s desire to regain Alsace-Lorraine, which was annexed by Germany as a result of the Franco-Prussian War.

Actually The King of Greece was married to the Kaiser’s sister and was more inclined to support the central powers. It was only due to a allied supported civil war that pushed Greece over to the Allies.
