  • Why, if they keep getting destroyed turn after turn, are the British still launching offensives into Gallipolli? You should have that event happen just once, considering that not even the Admiralty was that stupid.

    Comment


    • Yes, actually they were. Forces were continually committed to Gallipoli to be ground into hamburger well after it became apparent that the offensive was going nowhere.

      Now, that aside, back to the subject at hand and no more evasions. Please explain the presence of your interesting fighter planes.

      • I screwed up with the plutonium converter. But it's fixed. But the planes are still there.

        • And, I'm commanding that operation, NO MORE LANDINGS at Gallipoli. Particularly considering the monetary losses, it's impossible to make any money. You should either disable that monetary loss for the more simple units or stop these events that are silly. Instead of creating the troops you may as well cut my purse and run a little text message which costs less time and event space.

          • I just try to spend everything I happen to somehow earn each turn, that way, no money gets taken away by stupid infantry deaths

              You need to disband them and use the shields to build planes that you are actually supposed to have during this period.

              • Bah, I'll lose half the shields! No!

                    Why should the rest of us be bound to following the requirements of the rules.txt file while you do not? Should I instead start using a separate rules.txt file as well?

                    • C'mon, it's only one year early.

                      • Hardly. Either disband them, or I'll start building things like chlorine gas, howitzers, stormtroops, and my own advanced fighters.

                        • Here's the turn, sorry for the wait, nothing much happened. I'm going out of town today for a week, so my preemptive excuse for not playing my Confederate turn is that I'm out of town

                            Victories at Sea

                            Ships of the US Atlantic Fleet have scored several sucesses over the British Atlantic blockade squadron. According to the War Office, US Naval forces have sunk a British battleship, a cruiser and a destroyer without losing a ship.

                            Troop Buildup in Tennessee?

                            Sources within the War Department have recently told the Times that a new US Army formation named Army Group Tennessee has been recently been formed.
                            The Times cannot confirm this report, but if it is true then military experts believe that the Army Group's goal would be to relieve the siege of Richmond by attacking Confederate Focres in Georgia or the Carolinas. This view is supported by the recent naval and artillery attacks on Confederate forces in Virginia and the railway-busting raids which have prevented the Confederacy moving reinforements from the Trans-Mississippi to the Eastern States.
