[Drendor]

I got the save. Will play asap.

And andis-1: you get to play your nice turn soon! But that is after I destroyed all your troops! Hahahaha!

Sorry Andis; I forgot to tell ya. In our biq Italy starts with 1 piece of atomic bomb and I suspect that Redman intends to use it this very turn....

 

[andis-1]

Fear not our german ally, we still have the ion cannon placed at the orbit; it will intercept italian icbm's

 

[Drendor]

Whats taking you so long Redman?

 

[andis-1]

I hope nothing happened to him...

 

[Redman]

I have some trouble with Civilization as I'm working on my pc. Will fix it today, and hopefully can send the save on to andis-1.

[Luthor_Saxburg]

Redman, you have the file for over 1 week. Please hurry with the turn.

 

[Drendor]

or....if you know that you will have troubles playing your turn within 2-3 days, have an ally playing your turn.

We need to be smoother

1st of February 1915 is declared as national holiday in Austria to celebrate the amazing victory over Italian fleet. The battle took place in southern Adriatic sea, east of Bari, but several smaller skrimishes were fought elsewhere. The casulties for both sides were:

Italy: 4x Cavour class battleship, 2x armored cruiser, 1 pre-dreadnaught, 8x destroyer.

Austria: 1 semi-dreadnaught, 1 submarine, 2 destroyers.

Everything summed up, the whole italian adriatic fleet was destroyed in detail.

War went just as well on land. Landing to Bari was successful and the city itself was taken with ease, no casulties. Austrian forces continue to advance inland and capture some workers and engineers.
Siege of Venice was likewise successful, city falls after massive artillery barrage. Italian casulties were 5 machineguns, 3 infantry and 1 artillery, Austrian casulties consisted of 1 flamer.

The short italian incursion to athens is dealt quickly, and the invading infantry division is destroyed.

Sorry for the delay, had an exam.
Well, still does not make the slowest anyway ^^

Nikosia has fallen (2 British A, 2 British R and 1 fortress division). 2 workers were captured nearby and a radar (??) destroyed. Artillery proved very weak and the defenders brought one attacking army to 1 HP and another to 2 !
Anyway no losses.

Sunk mine and 3 DD around Cyprus (first by sub, others by DDs). We lost 2 DD in the attack.

Sunk 1 DD West of Cyprus.

Damaged attacking troops near Port Saïd where British troops are as numerous as stones in the desert !

Anyway no losses.

Austrians congratulate our Ottoman allies on their amazing victory!

 

[LouLong]

We are kind of happy and in a self-congratulating mood ourselves ^^
Nikosia was a real horn, harboring enemy ships very close to our shores !
Now it opens our line of sight and protects the Eastern Med !

But amazing ? Isn't that too much ? It makes us look cheap !

 

[andis-1]

Well of course you couldn't except less from our glorious allies

[aksully]

Have the turn and will send it along later today...
On a non-game note......

Does anyone here who has done some modding have what I would call....

A 1-2-3 type of instruction how how to add a unit to a scenario/mod?

I've tried using the one that Kracken did but apparently it is incomplete and hard to figure what is missing having to read through a couple of hundred of posts..

If someone has something like this...would you mind sending me a copy? It would be greatly appreciated!

[Drendor]

The fallen comrades in the glorious Vaterland korps are of course awarded with the iron cross post mortem. That´s what I call going down in flames!

 

[aksully]

French forces continue to engage the approximately 100 assorted German Divisions engaging the line from Verdun to Nancy and Besancon.

We doff our caps to the fallen British comrades who lost their lives on our soil defending France from the Hun.

But...We now ask our British Comrades to return to Britain to defend their own homes..their own land. We do not want nor desire any more assistance on French soil. Fight the good fight for your homes against the German and his evil allies.

France stands or falls with its own troops on its own soil. From now on...the only blood that will be spilled on French soil will be FRENCH....along with a lot of GERMAN blood.
