Maimonides
Emperor
Playtest Report. Version 4.0. Russia.
Week 33, 1900. Victory in Korea!
-I take Pusan easily as it was only defended by 1 Japanese Infantry. The Vladivostok fleet bombarded the city & my Cossacks rode in. I make peace with Japan & collect 365 Gold (all they had) in war reparations.
-Our Horse Artillery Batteries are sent west to be upgraded.
-Vladivostok is set to building Maxim MG Battalions to garrison Korea's cities & VP trenches.
-Port Arthur is set to building Seam Transports. Due to Impassable Mountains, any further expansion in the east will require them.
-Now that hostilities are over, Raw Materials from Manchuria & Korea are sent towards Moscow.
-The war with Japan produced 2 elite Cossack units. They are renamed to Don Cossacks & Volga Cossacks.
Week 34, 1900. Ruling the waves!
-The Vladivostok fleet is combined with what's left of Port Arthur's fleet forming the newly-named Russian Imperial Pacific Fleet. The Pacific Fleet docks at Pusan. It consists of 1 Coastal Gunship, 6 cruisers (CA), 3 Preseviet Class BBs & 1 Borodino Class BB.
Week 37, 1900. Tension in the Caucuses!
-Remaining artillery & Cossacks in Korea are sent to T'bilisi to counter the growing Ottoman threat. I'm still not capable of fighting on two fronts.
-The Trans-Siberian Railway, under construction since 1895, is completed between Chita Oblast & Vladivostok. Our Civil Engineers continue laying track west towards Khampa while Japanese P.O.W. Workers complete the line between Vladivostok & Hamhung.
Week 41, 1900. Hey, brother, can ya spare a gas mask?
-The Pacific Fleet now includes 2 Stream Transports. We've got the navy to extend our rule in the east, but not the ground forces.
-Port Arthur is building Maxim MG Battalions to garrison Korea.
-St.Petersburg completes the Chemical Weapons Program & begins work on Classical Conditioning. Soon, we will be able to train dogs to drool at the ring of a bell & then gas the drooling morons! MWUHAHAHA!
-The shipyards in Odessa are putting together quite a Black Sea fleet which currently consists of 4 Coastal Gunships & 2 Borodino Class BBs.
Week 45, 1900. Zzzzzz.
Week 49, 1900. We're gonna need icebreakers.
-Arckhangel'sk completes all improvements & lays down a keel for a Borodino Class BB. Unlike Scandinavia, we've had no ships up there in the Arctic. This is the start of what will become the Russian Imperial Murmansk Fleet.
Week 1, 1901. Raw Materials. Mmmm. Yummy.
-All 3 cities in Korea produce Raw Materials! Look out, Vicky! Here I come!
-We now have plenty of artillery & Cossacks in T'bilisi to take on the Turks, but our infantry is still stuck garrisoning Korea waiting to be replaced by Maxim MG Battalions. We'll need the infantry for protection & to garrison gains in Anatolia so we wait...
-The British are "annoyed" with me. That's OK. Probably just a case of penis envy.
Week5, 1901. The great gun tease.
-Learned Mountain Guns II, but it didn't make any new artillery available for us. Working on Advanced Biology now to better understand the nits living in our beards.
Week 9, 1901. Rise of the intelligensia.
-St. Petersburg builds Classical Conditioning! Pavlov rings a bell. A dog drools. The whole world rejoices.
This gives us knowledge of Advanced Biology & Precious Metals & Stones. St. Petersburg begins work on Genetics. Our scientists begin learning Colonial Administration V.
-Our land forces continue to build in T'bilisi.
-Arckhangel'sk finishes it's 1st Borodino Class BB which sails for Romanov-on-Murman.
-Current VP Top 5: British Empire 574, Russia 541, USA & France 492, German Empire 428.
Still no bugs to report.
I'm having no trouble economically or scientifically-probably because I've prioritized building improvements & infrastructure.
