I have been to fearful to unleash the fury of my U-Boats.[;)] I try to keep America on the sidelines as long as possible. Yeah, the HSF is a one shot gamble. If it is cripled, there is no way Germany is able to regenerate the threat.

Now that I think about it, the only gameplay changes that I think are necessary are ones that concern Naval Operations and these are fairly minor and should be doable if Frank thinks they make sense.

1.TE must control Constantinople in order to transfer War Materials through the Dardanelles.

2.Inreased cost of Naval Assets for the RN to enter and maintain itself in the Baltic.

3.Graphic borders for Sea Zones.

4.Graphic indicator in the list, to make it easy to tell which ships need repair.

For the moment, this is all I would change with the game.

All noted.  Can't figure out how I let the Constantinople thing slip by.

I posted this in another thread, but the TE should really be required to control both Gallipoli and Constantinople in order to Transfer War Materials to Russia, otherwise, the TE could do an Amphibious Assault directly against Constantinople and ignore Gallipoli. This would ensure that the TE actually contol the straights instead of just doing an end run on Constantinople.

You can't assault striaght to Constantinople if Gallipoli is occupied tho - it blocks access....hence it's a good 1st move for the Turks!!
 
Conceivably controlling the forts in teh straights could be done seperately from controlling Constantinople tho (although it should be completely untenable position to hold in that case) - so you're probably right - you should control both.

I was thinking Russia might launch an assault on Constantinople from the Black Sea side.

Tannenberg got in the way!
