New turn. Brest falls when French soldiers just walk in. Winter is passing into Spring.

Do your opponents have an AAR? Other then yours the other AAR are dated back in may

Nope. I'm sure they're reading this one. I know the Austrian player has.

And don't comment on Strategy or the lack thereof Zap, it usually brings them out of the wood work and they get ornery.

I would guess the reason for no AAR

There is a chance.

Okay, you have my curiosity. What were the results after you took over (casualties? experience?) give us the lowdown! News is sparse so any movement is big news.

I can't say how much experience is gained, as that is a *long*, slow, road. Battles don't tell you.

Each regiment aka element earns exp points. One regiment started at 1 star. 60 turns latter (now), it's 5pts from getting it's third.

HQ units train every unit in the stack. Some leaders, Davout for one, also trains. I don't think that the effects stack

If I remember correctly you are in second position behind Brits(as far as winning the game) right?

Yup.

Time for a vent.

The current host is sending me emails that claim he has all orders but mine. A quick check of the dropbox shows otherwise.

This has happened twice. This time I replied with a picture of said box

I suspect that he is trying to get the slowpokes to get moving by getting me to post. Why do I suspect that? Because he emailed me stating that.

Due to some personal stuff I do not want to get into, I don't have the time in front of my machine.

And his "Under no circumstances will I use the AI." nonsense creates a problem that he won't solve.

So, if necessary, I will drop out.

I know you've put a bit of time into this one, but it might be time to just cut your losses and drop out. Honestly I don't know how you have done it as long as you have. Nobody wants to be known as the guy who dropped out of the game, but I think you've put your time in here.

I just did. He still claims to have everyone's orders, but there are orders from three players still in the dropbox. Plus replays for five players. (I delete mine on principle.)

So, I quit and deleted the dropbox.

To bad that it come to this but I think you made the right call.

Thanks.

I'm going to continue this as each nation, for now.

Looking at Spain... For some reason that is beyond me, Spain has built *no* divisions. Even though they are fighting Portugal, she has a bunch of small stacks that if attacked will suffer a 35% penalty. And the army commander is sitting in Madrid. Not smart when you're at war. On top of breaking the alliance with France.

So divisions are being built, as is a Corps. And Godoy is heading for the front.

Turkey: Not fighting anyone. I'm thinking they should either fight Russia or Eqypt. I have to wonder why Austria isn't fighting Turkey as they're at peace with France. Have to wonder why Russia isn't either, being that they run away from the French armies.

Austria: For some reason only known to the previous player, they have been hording EPs. And *not* rebuilding the army.

This is a player who was trying to goad France into a renewal of the war. A war they made no preparations to fight.

So I fixed that.

If you're looking to fight the strongest power, you don't do it by refusing to repair and improve the army.
