SG Military Conquest/Domination - DG or Deity or Sid?

I got to say I love how your mind works! Hopefully they'll raze a few cities between themselves and put this silly 'diplomatic' solution behind us. Then we can get back grinding them under our tank treads!

IBT
See something I have never seen before, ottoman marine attacks my tank from a boat, it

loses though
More celtic landings

Deal with a load of celtic units, gain a leader who forms 4th Tank Army

I leave it there



Bit of a slog, we have 4 armies in Germany 3 Tank and 1 Cavalry in German Territory outside Edrine, we have airfield on the other continent with a number of airfields in tundra to transport units across,

We have a infantry army escourting a load of infantry and a couple of flak across Germany towards Edrine possibly.

We can go to war with the Germans currrently by attacking the Celts in their territory

I have been reluctant to do this and would like to take out Edrine first, which is building the UN.

We are in a position now were we dont need a ROP with Eygypt, however I recommend keeping 8 units in Byblos and 16 in Giza to prevent flips.

Whoever is up next, there is plenty of fighting to do.

Oh and when you are ready to go to war with Germany, be ready to pillage roads near Giza (so panzers cant reach it without being seen and bombarded and German Oil.
 
If we can plant a spy with the ottomans a steal of ecology my be quicker than research. I had a few failed attempts.
 
Sounds like an interesting turn set coming up!

I might be able to start Saturday, the viewing is today and funeral tomorrow. (my brother passed away Monday). I may be slow this turn, but the busyness will help take my mind off things. Bear with me guys, RL can be very rough at times.
 
Sorry to hear about your loss. :sad: My condolenses to you and your family.
 
I'm going to miss him alot, we were different in many ways, but we shared alot in common. It will be some time before I won't feel that a piece of my soul is somewhere else, inaccessible. I
guess we will reunite when I get where he went.
 
It's my fault, I haven't been in a playing mood, I will try to finish today.
 
Sorry for your loss Overseer.

Thank you, Spoonwood, life can take some dark turns. I have to take joy in the life that was led, not sorrow from its' end.
 
I have finished the set, finally. The good news is that we are on the verge of victory. There is no bad news...
