Hi. If you're not Spain, England, France, or Libya, get lost NOW. :D

We need to be prepared in the event of war against Prussia and Austria. Now, coming to the aid of an ally is always a pain, especially when you get nothing for it. Fortunately, we WILL get something for it, that is, the lands of Prussia and Austria (if they attack) or 14 Provinces total, to be split among the allies.

The better we organize the faster this war will be over and the quicker we will be able to rebuild. I know Spain and Libya realize how important organization is, when Italy collapsed and Sweden held on tenaciously, merely because Libya and Spain co-operated.

Now, we must let them start the war and indeed we have no choice because of my FOOLISH STUPID Demilitarization [should never have trusted Prussia... sigh...] anyway, we need to figure out what to do this turn and next turn.

Here are my suggestions, they are only suggestions, but they are well thought out and they are the best cooperative plans I can come up with.

Note: ALL WEPOP NATIONS ARE GRANTED ROP IN FRANCE FOR NOW.

FRANCE will spend his 42 gold on 14 armies, which will repel any invasion of Province 11, and from Province 11 be able to counter-attack in any direction.

BRITAIN will move his fleet from A to D, from there either to attack Province 10 if it is held by Prussia, or to move to C and land troops in Prussia itself. Meanwhile he will spend his 10 gold on 3 armies, which will convoy over to Province 10 to slow Prussian advance and pincer Prussia between Belgium and Denmark. If the troops in Denmark are not attacked by Prussia, they will take any oppurtunity possible to attack Prussia's rear.

LIBYA will spend her money taking over Italy, HOWEVER, he must be careful to protect 31 from Austrian attack. The 3 troops there must always be on the defense.

SPAIN will move 3 fleets from K to J, and buy 3 fleets in I. He will also buy 12 armies and convoy them to 30. From there, they can attack Prussia or Austria.

------------------------

Sound good to everyone? The total effect, will be 12 Spanish armies in 30, 14 French armies in 11, 3 British armies in 10, and more ready to attack.

Britain has already spent the money gained from last turn on two town halls, in order to add to the income. This, I can not change, I NEED TO START BRINGING IN MORE MONEY. This will, hwoever, probably help us in the long run. Sorry Napoleon. However, I have sent the fleet to D giving it a pivot point. Next, if war is started, I will most likely send remaining troops in England to defend Denmark, then rely on my Navy to protect British Isles from any invasion.

Dear Napoleon
I can't afford to let 3 armies on the front for the moment, I need to retake Rome. But I don't think Austria will attack us for the moment. More, I have a MPP with Turkey and Austria would be crushed a two-fronts war should be engaged. I don't think she is foolish enough.
But in Prussia's cas, you can count on me if any attack is undertaked by her against you.

Your servitor, Abu Bakr.

Personally guys, I think they're still gearing up if there is a war, and I have a feeling that they aren't at all, but instead were just building up incase France struck towards Russia because of a war over the embargo.

I think Austria could hold against Turkey, but wouldn't be able to attack so much. Prussia's coast would be too easily hit by Britain, and her supply lines too easily cut if you ask me.

Just here as a neutral observor(don't try booting me out of here lol or you'll find ten of your provinces rebelling :p ), but just my opinion.

In other words, you've got orders from Prussia and he's not attacking. :D Is that it?

Napoleon,
The Spanish troops are tired and humbled by the war in Italy. While we have seen great successes, myself and my people are keen to retire to the "Castillean Estate" that is peace. I plan on disbanding most of my armies and building town halls in all of my territories this turn, which will make Spain by far the most rich nation in the world.

The Spanish troops are on their way home, or are making new homes in the Spanish Napoletan territories. We will make war later, but for now, we are interested in retiring for the night.

Most cordially,
King Ferdinand VII.

Britain, also, wishes to retire and rebuild her shattered economy. War is the last thing on her mind.

What should be our current position in the American's crisis ? A war isn't enviable other there but should we help the USA ? Economicaly, militarily ?

Spain will pursue a strong policy of non-involvement in North America and considers the WPP void in the area.

Britain is not as lenient as her sister nation, Spain. The samething that has happened to Britain is happening to the U.S.A., yet they are unfortunate to have no allies. I vote we MUST help them.

I vote that we shouldn't send armies over there but I'm sure we can find some gold to help USA war's industry.
