Autumn, 1904: It's an impressive achievement. Rare to see Turkey this size. I'm enjoying a change from the usual France/Austria game, although the same border lines are forming.

Spring, 1905: Well, you will win before that I believe, this game is an exercise on speed and convoys.

Spring, 1905: Yes. While I think England is the weaker player (and to try to compensate for this a bit they allow a fleet to already start in the North Sea), I simply sought to establish the same 18 that France can win with in France v Austria. St Petersburg to Tunis, and France takes the game. I'm setting up for the same thing here. If I were you, I would have been more aggressive in getting my armies and fleets spread out as far as possible, worrying about closer SCs like Serbia/Bulgaria later once you have the borders established.

Turkey has the handicap to have the fleet in the Black Sea so it takes time to get it in real action and need more fleets.

Good game.

A good game. First time I ever played Turkey.

It's an interesting country to play. I like to play it in full press, not so much in gunboat. This is another variant I'd like to try sometime if we have a third player interested: http://www.vdiplomacy.net/variants.php?variantID=49
