This is against the AI, I'm not very good. Russia is mostly just throwing itself against my defenses in east Prussia and Galicia.

That is good advice, thank you. I think I'm about to force their surrender in 1915 now that I took their second capital and NM is at 20%.

Yes - the capital did move to Bordeaux. I've tried to race to bordeaux but havent been able to get there quickly in any sort of fighting shape. Getting NM down to 0% has been a real challenge too. I'm relatively new to the game Im wondering if there are some strategies or tactics I am missing.

What's the earliest I can get France Surrender in the 1914 Campaign? I've captured Paris on Turn 3, but I can't seem to turn this into a French Surrender no matter what I do. I've played through to Middle 1915 and they're bleeding NM and troops but I think best case is end of 1915.

Whats the ...
