Message from Germany to Master
At last France attacked England by landing an army in Wales.
Unfortunately for me England didn't take too well my move in Scandinavia
and moved to HEL. Now I have to decide if I have to defend DEN and KIE
by going back from my attacking position in Scandinavia, or
hoping that England would come back to counter French attack.
I'll defend only KIE and I'll proceed with my attack on NWY: Russia is
a bigger threat to me than England is at the moment, I'd prefer
to have England at my side against a dangerous France.
Message from Turkey to Master
To the west:
- France attacked England (no big surprise). But that England
ordered A Lon H instead of A Lon-Wal (which he ordered
last spring) was a little surprise. I don't think England will
survive this attack. So France will be the major force
in the west.
- Germany cannot cover Hol, Kie, and Den. So Germany might simply
get Nor and hope that England doesn't attack him.
I now have a very stable position. But I don't think I cannot
influence the west at the moment to my favour:
- Peace with Austria or Italy is very difficult because
1. I have the centers they want (Ser/Gre).
2. I'm already too big and so I'm a too big threat.
- So the only thing I could do is to attack Russia. But
this would only help Germany and not England who needs help
at the moment.
So I will continue the Juggernaut.
Russia made the mistake to attack Bud from Gal and so Gal was
dislodged. If Russia dislodges Gal this turn Italy might disband
it and build a third fleet. So at the moment it's unpredictable
whether Russia and I will be able to break through in Bud or ION
first. For ION Alb is the key:
- if Austria moves ADR to Alb I can cut the Austrian support.
- if I move to Alb I can attack Tri with support and Austria need
his fleet to hold it.
As I can attack ION this turn only with one support Austria might
order to F ADR-Alb. Because I don't want to bounce him I don't move
there, too. So my orders are:
F AEG-ION: If Italy makes a mistake and doesn't support himself.
F Gre S F AEG-ION
F Smy-EAS: So I can attack ION with three supports next year.
A Syr-Smy: I don't need an army in Syr and Smy is a very nice
place:
- I can move to Arm if I want to attack Russia.
- I can cover Con or Ank if Russia attacks me.
- I cannot build in Smy and so I can build a fleet in Con if
I want to attack Russia later.
Perhaps the army will stay in Smy for several turns.
A Ser S A Rum-Bud: To signal Russia that I will continue supporting
him and I will support Rum and not Gal next turn.
A Bul S A Ser: Austria can attack Ser with a support so that I must
support Ser to hold it.
