Big Thanks to Giovani Wine for taking Austria. Good luck.
Battles: Turn of the Suicides. you guys have no respect for the lives of your men.
Iceland (51)
The British finaly saw an opportunity to push back the Vikings.
Attacking with most of their forces from the motherland they have a 1.5:1 numerical advantage.
Rolls: 6,5,4,4,4,3 vs 5,4,2,1
Sea B
The Russians came in with guns blazing hoping to help the Vikings overwhelm the British, but the Vikings had gone south.
3 Russians Vs 3 British
Rolls: 5,3,3 vs 3,3,2 then 6,5,3 vs 6,4
Province 65 and 66
The Prussians transported their armies to try and take as much land as possible. fortunately for them, the Vickings left the seas east of Denmark completely empty.
Province 63
The Russians had just commisioned a new army here when the Prussians showed up. In the bloody battle, both armies wiped eachother out, and the Russians retained control of the province.
Rolls: 6 vs 4
Moscow(61)
The Carthigians sent a suicide squad into Moscow that were quickly.
Rolls: auto battle Russians loose 1
Province 60
same thing as moscow.
Province 54
Here the russians tried the Suicide tactic, but found the province deserted and were able to reclaim it.
Province 53
This is where the bulk of the Carthigians from 54 went. They noticed the lonely russian army on the border too late, and lost one of their own armies to the suicidal russians.
Rolls: Auto battle, Carthage looses 1
Province 52
Another lucky suicider, this one is Carthigian. found the province undefended.
Province 47
The Carthigian suiciders did much better against Turkey then against Russia. again found the province undefended.
Province 56
Hoping to wipe out the Austrians, the russians attacked the last austiran province. and took it easily. The only Austrian army there was able to kill a Russian army by execitomg a daring suicide attack.
Rolls: auto battle, russia looses 1
Province 39
The Austrians 'moved' again. taking another province from the russians, and once again being left with only one province.
Province 58
The russians counter attacked the Prussians. taking what was once thier capitol.
Province 37
The Vikings expanded their holdings on Prussian land.
Province 35
The Spaniards have finaly reached central Europe. Massive attack force of 11 armies attacked this province defended by 3 Viking armies.
Rolls: 6,5,5,5,4,4,3,3,2,1,1 vs 3,2,2
Province 10
The sea battle seeming to come to a stale mate, the Vikings attacke the British by land. Fair fight 3 vs 3. The Vikings just barely pull through and win the day.
Rolls: 6,5,5 vs 6,5,1
Province 11
The Russians, in an attempt to move farther west to help the French attack here. but are met by a force twice their number.
Rolls: 6,5,4,3,2,2 vs 6,6,2
Province 7
The french make their final stand against the Spanish. 3 armies attacking 2. The French pride and hate for the Spanish conquerors proves enough to overcome the supperior forces.

Province 32
The Turks attacked the Italians hoping for an easy win, but were surprised to find 3 new armies (in addition to 2 already stationed there).

Province 42
While the Turks were attacking by land, the Italians went around them by sea, and attacked this undefended province.
Gold to spend
Russia 35
Vikings 19
Britain 25
France 3
Spain 27
Carthage 29
Italy 9
Austria -1
Prussia 7
Turkey -4
Hunger:
Austria has 1 army going hungry (last turn some starved and died, but none went hungry)
Turkey has 4 armies going hungry.
none of the ships in C had orders to attack anyone (just defence) so they are all peacefully coexisting for now.
