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.
