Italy
The fight begins for Italy..! Well the French and Italian garrisons by Venice did not last long (red circles)[X(].! Judging from the amount of CP fighters exposed here had to be at least 5 local air strikes. German artillery got punished between this turn and last turn, these I figured were going to be central to opnn's offensive here to take Italy. There's not a whole lot I can do to counter his fighter power, but to just slog it out. Will be railing a French garrison by Dijon to this front asap. Railed a French infantry to the northeast of Milan, as well as marched a garrison to Milan, while the Italians muster together fresh units. The Italians need to meet quotas to deploy their only infantry commander by attacking.. Brit infantry needed a turn of rest by Nice before moving to this front. Hope the Italian cav by Venice can hold the line till help arrives.[&o]

Suez
Still working to reduce the Turk army here, although his infantry and commander have reentered the fight. Air and naval units throw their weight into this battle too. The French armored cruiser might come into some use in the Red Sea.

i wont do it vs anyone random, i really pushed it to the limit, usually i smash anyone before u r starting to take screenshots
i need someone who wont fall as house of cards
RE: opnn (CP) vs operating (E) active
I think you realize that my screenshots are for the public to get some idea about tactics and strategies that can be used in this game. It does not mean what I do is correct at all times, for that matter, often they are questionable. On the other hand I rarely see anything of tactical or strategic value from you to pass on to others that can be substantiated, a lot of speech, but no substance, so nobody learns nothing about your grandiose approach to the game. If you are that good, you should not be afraid to show the rest of the world your method to the madness. I am not ashamed to show sometimes my best as well as my worst.[:)]

opnn did not hedge much on his turn, really his options were few and has only one exit from this region or get crushed. With my army blocking his east and with mountains to his north and south, he has only one direction to go, which is to withdraw to the west. Because my units (ZOC) crowd Erzurum he cannot receive reinforcements there and his Turk SG is basically stuck where it is now and be over-run later. My units are for the most part replenishing aside from a couple that are attacking, it's about maneuver for now, flank, re-flank.[;)]

u can at least slow me down and last 25 or 30 turns, someone random usually leaves at meeting with first difficulty
nothing to learn from then anyway

Just viewed your AAR over at Slitherine, try to give it a little more substance. WOW..!! Your Paris looks to be a very vulnerable.[X(]ORIGINAL: nehi

Warsaw-Galicia
This might not look like much, it's where I'm chipping away at Germany's MP and forcing opnn to use PP for repairs, his total PP must be getting a low net about now.. He is not strong enough to over-power me and I'm not strong enough to over-power him atm. So as far as I am concerned it's a period for attrition, which eventually will work in my favor.

of course, it was a trap to lure germans into the gap [:D]
with few pauses i was thinking like 30 mins about what to do in 3rd turn, its outcome is nothing i will make public, because such defense can win almost any game and make mine vs it even tougher
usually i do just whats needed to win fast, this time i made anything to not lose [8D]
if im talking about aar i mean something like time when russia joins it and later, later its not such crucial
so random leaving players in 10th turn is not an option

The only observation I can make out in this picture is that many of the German units are not being repaired, aside from losses made this turn. It's an indicator to me that Germany is in economic flux. How bad? I do not know? Another possibility: Is that opnn is pretending to be broke, or holding PP from repairing for another purpose.

North Baltic
Germany's fleets are getting savaged, especially their light cruisers, none of them can break-out from the pocket they are in, except for maybe the 3 strength sub fleet. The German pre-dreadnaught has arrived, don't think it can do much of anything just yet. Using my Russian dreadnaught as blocker, may salvo the German sub if it is there next turn, we'll see. Russian shipyards are busy refitting damaged fleets, readying them for their next missions.

Constantinople
Withdrawing Cavan to Izmir to be at full supply and planning on moving the repaired infantry towards Gallipopli where it will have fleet supply support and ability to upgrade. Naval bombardment continues at both Turk cities here, also noted that the Turk garrison had repaired some. While land units are at half-supply they can only move one hex and cannot detach commanders.
