Post turn- Our forces heal in Ostia and there is still an unladen army there. On land, the Iros can be beaten back now that the main Bab stacks are eliminated. They were essentially massacred between Fort Vaux and Verdun between the artillery and cav armies. At sea we get sporadic landings. There are a couple convoys about. One is loaded with settlers and cannons and is about halfway between continents. The other is an empty group of 10 transports by New Lugdunum for use against Sumeria later. Plenty of spare transports around Ostia, didnt know what to do with them all. I do have a number of ships forted for lack of a mission for them. Workers the same way. Iros have been building a lot of aircraft, so be aware, about 50 planes. We do have some flak guns about. No fighters. Hiawatha also has a transport and frigate escort not far off our homeland.
I assume they didn't have many attack units.
