PBEM THE GREAT WAR - Div Level

In reply to Drendor's suggestion...I can agree to the turn restriction...However, I haven't played this scenario before and not sure of the time one turn represents...day, week, month. I'll also have to dust off my memory on the start of WWI and France's mobilization status at the start.
But I'm will trust to those a little more WWI savvy to work out an agreeable timeframe.

Turns are 1 week. It's a 200 turn game which is about 4 years in weeks.
 
Those house-rules sound fine with me, as do the merging of countries.
Let's get this show on the road!
 
Attention to all players! Attention to all players!

Sounds good Luthor and thanks for getting everything right before we "take off"!! If it would not be too much trouble...could you send all of us a last email listing the players and their email addresses along with the House Rules?
Appreciate it and thanks again and be sure to send a Well Done to Rocoteh for helping out as well!

The Austrians have no business in punishing the Serbians for the murder of Franz Ferdinand!!! :mad:

Italy makes an Alliance with Serbia and declares war on Austria and their Allies!

The Austrian Empire would question the Entente's intents in this war. The Serbians obviously committed a heinous crime with the malicious intent of hurting Austria, and we are simply defending our right to exist peacefully. Now not only must the Serbians pay for their crime, but Italy and her allies as well. You, good sirs, have made a grave mistake.
 
The King of the British Empire doubts that Europe will go to war because of the death of 1 man!

However, the British Empire will honour the Alliances we currently have. If any of our Allies is attacked, that will consist of an attack against our Empire itself.

.
 
The Germans can not stand by in silence while the russians encourage the warmongering serbs to murder our allied leader and friend.

Russian mobilization and french troop movments have forced us to declare war on the republic of France. German troops are marching through belgium territory as we speak!


Turn summary: Gee that was alot to do! :p

We attacked some borderguards in Belgium and attacked Liege (after some bombardment who destroyed walls) One of our brave cavalries was killed but the others managed to occupy the city with the help of an army who took 7 dmg.
We cleared up some hexes around Liege too. Next we conquered Antwerp with an army. After that we went for a french coast town (dont remember its name, and i cant load the scenario it takes 30 min on my puter)
It had NO defender :goodjob:

Then we went for another french town along the coast further west.
I didnt know how many defender it had so I brought forward alot of heavy artillery and bombed away marketplace,library,granary you name it. everything but the walls :mad: Anyhow only 2 defenders so our army cracked it

I loaded one of my armies with a machine gun by mistake:wallbash:

2 of my cavs are on a suicide mission to cut railroad to one of my taskforces.

All in all we lost 1 cav, took 7 dmg to Hindenburg and 7 dmg to Falkenhayn.

We killed a french inf and an armoured car in France and all the garrisons in the belgian towns we attacked, plus some 4 or 5 crappy borderguards.


Some questions:

What is the defence bonus for being behind river? The pedia states diffrent info on two places....

Anyone else who has noticed that when you rightclick on units in production and look for the cost you get one value and when you look in the pedia/units you get another? And when you look at artillery costs in the pedia it sometime states the same cost for them eventhough they cost diffrently....

And how come a garrison seem to cost as much as the best infantry division?

I had huge difficulties knowing what diffrent units costed and having mobilized it took along time to adjust my production to avoid too much waste.

A list with all the correct costs for units would be nice...

And why dont i get full production when building an artillery?
If i build inf i get full prod but if I change to art my production gets lowered.
Is it because i have mobilized and the artilleries arent "checked" as military units?

"Russian mobilization and french troop movments have forced us to declare war on the republic of France."

The French Government is confused by our German neighbors comments??
There have been no French Troop Movements...seeing that we have yet to have a turn????

We will evaluate the situation when the current turn gets to us. We are willing to allow our neighbor a "free turn" to correct their border mistake.

If they do not....then the full force of the French Armed Forces will devastate German forces on land, sea, and in the air!

The French are on the cutting edge fo armament production! Tanks, Camel aircraft, and siege guns...OH MY!

From the French Government to the German Government. Withdraw your troops from French and Belgium territory....NOW!

Or feel the Fierce Heat of our Cold Steel against your troops "soft bellies"!

We know how your evil & cunning diplomats have been encourageing the russians to mobilize.

But I´m telling ya! Elsass and Lorraine is ours now! We aint giving it back!!!

:sniper:
 
The Austrian Empire would like to respectfully remind the French that it was their allies the Italians that declared war on us, and the German offensive is nothing more than a pre-emptive strike in order to keep German citizens out of harm's way.

Know that the Germans have the full support of their brothers in Austria.

Yes! Pre-emptive thats what it is! This war is purely defensive mind you...
 
The Ottomans capture Port Said, thus opening the Suez canal to its allies. Egypt was under the Ottomans and probably longs to be back under our Muslim leaderships.
 
Now the Ottoman Empire will feel the (once peacefull) English wrath!!!!

The British press is wondering if there were any casualties on the Turks side?
 
I opened up the scenario today as France. And now the map was much clearer, it was easier to spot railroads,forts,hills,grasslands,forests etc.

When i played the first turn with the save i got there was the old map, a blurry one wich gave me headache.

It sure would be nice if the following turns used the new map.

Any thoughts about this?

And any thoughts about my previous questions?
