WW1 Real Time or PBEM

[LouLong]

Battle around Metz : 1MG and 2 conscript German Inf Div destroyed, 1 engineer captured. Lost 1 conscript inf
Battle for Metz : after heavy shelling, attack kills 1 MG and 5 (I think) Infantry Div for the loss of 2 conscripts, one regular, one veteran and one elite Div.
Killed the yellow annoyances Germany had let across the Belgium border.

Edit : sorry forgot : Ragusa bombed to hell (population, improvements (recycling center ???) and tile improvements !

Without arty, the neutrals are just a PITA. Too bad there is no way to lock them from war.

Its not like they can do anything but die ;p

 

[Dell19]

Will play tomorrow.

 

[BkGreatWarnut]

Umm...just one thing, in the real war, Japan and Russia were both on the same side.

 

[Aeon221]

I know I know... but there was this little thingy called the Russo Japanese War... 1904-05 where they KICKED THE CRAP out of Russia...

Talking about that yeah ;p

If they tried it again, we would win. So yeah, thats what its about biatch ;p hahaha

 

[Dell19]

I did mention that earlier... Most of the Russian navy in the east was destroyed or something similar.

 

[BkGreatWarnut]

If they tried it again, we would win. So yeah, thats what its about biatch ;p hahaha

You crack me up! Well, technically they are on your side right now and realizing that they would get their butts kicked, they prolly want to stay there. Besides, they are more interested in the spheres of influence we have in China and some of the South Pacific.

 

[Aeon221]

Yeah, Siege of Port Arthur(?sounds wrong) and Battle of Tsushima Straits left Russian navy crippled/ nonexistent. Russian military prestiege tanked.

Has anyone made a scenario of that war yet?

 

[Dell19]

Played the turn, Italian destroyer sunk, bombardment of Venice, railroad next to Venice bombarded and stack of border troops bombarded slightly.

 

[Aeon221]

Hahaha Bk!

Huah we scary Russians!

 

[LouLong]

I did mention that earlier... Most of the Russian navy in the east was destroyed or something similar.

Not only that but a large part of the Baltic fleet came all the way along the Siberian coast just to be defeated after arrival.
The Russian navy was nearly no mre (remained the Black Sea Fleet only).

 

[music_theory7]

You sunk my Destroyer?! Why hear this that pitiful excuse for a fleet will never leave Trieste I tell you. I'll sink your pitiful fleet to the last patrol boat and the last fishing ship! I don't care about how attacking cilivians are a war crime!

Also I noticed that only one road is left going to Venice. Which was why I needed a rear grassion to protect this lifeline. If Austria thinks he can take Venice he has another thing coming. Take Venice LOL thats the most stuipdest thing I ever heard. lol.

 

[Dell19]

3 other Italian destroyers have been destroyed previously...

 

[Aeon221]

I know you evil ...central... powers will appreciate this, since all of you have tasted defeat at the hands of us Russians ;p

I strongly recommend you listen to this song, but I'm gonna leave you the lyrics because it really is quite apropos ;p

So, without further ado, this is "The Trooper" by Iron Maiden

You'll take my life but I'll take yours too
You'll fire your musket but I'll run you through
So when you're waiting for the next attack
You'd better stand there's no turning back.

The bugle sounds and the charge begins
But on this battlefield no one wins
The smell of acrid smoke and horses breath
As I plunge on into certain death.

The horse he sweats with fear we break to run
The mighty roar of the Russian guns
And as we race towards the human wall
The screams of pain as my comrades fall

We hurdle bodies that lay on the ground
And the Russians fire another round
We get so near yet so far away
We won't live to fight another day.

We get so close near enough to fight
When a Russian gets me in his sights
He pulls the trigger and I feel the blow
A burst of rounds take my horse below.

And as I lay there gazing at the sky
My body's numb and my throat is dry
And as I lay forgotten and alone
Without a tear I draw my parting groan

 

[Aeon221]

Speaking of which, who has the turn?

 

[BkGreatWarnut]

I know you evil entente powers will appreciate this, since all of you have tasted defeat at the hands of us Russians ;p

I strongly recommend you listen to this song, but I'm gonna leave you the lyrics because it really is quite apropos ;p

Would be nice if you would inflict defeats upon the Entente Powers, but unfortunately, you have only fought against the Central Powers (Germany, Austria-Hungary, & the Ottomans).

 

[BkGreatWarnut]
