Mecca falls, smiths is not Ottoman wonder. Maintenance vastly improves! Also pick up 6 arty. Use the Arty to redline a couple of nearby battleships. I see Arabia only has 2 bombers left. Stop jet fighter production. What I have now should be able to keep up with them.
Finally! Some progress!

I have 3 MA armies ready to go. I put them in the line to wound incoming Celtic attacks.
Okay, now the underhanded trick. My rep is already busted, so I make peace with the Celts and trade them Genetics for Space Flight, 1911gp and WM. I retreat my units to my side of the boarder. To Arabia I offer a peace treaty and a MPP. I Offer Arabia Genetics for WM and 130gp all theyve got. I demand dyes just for fun. I declare war on the Celts and we are back at war. I move my MA armies back into position. I find a use for an old archer I was using as MP. I put him as the sacrafical lamb for the MA assault that is coming. When the Celts attack the archer, it will trigger a war between the Celts and Arabia and end their trade deal for oil.
IBT Dirty trick works. Brave archer dies for the Ottoman Monarchy and Arabia declares on the Celts. Celts invade with 6 MA. Arabia demands I leave their lands and I naturally agree.
1866 AD Cure for Cancer builds. Longevity in 1 turn. Redline all invaders. I ship some arty from Arabia to west front I dont think well be at war over there anymore. Load up mech army and put it on duty. Other mech army is also healed and put it on boarder patrol.
