Am I taking all the fun out of it?

[panzergator]

You can ignore me and do what you want, mech. That would be your EASIEST solution.

Hoping to move redlegs Black Sea Campaign further.

The NC army division has landed safely in our temporary base in Athens Greece.

With a Coalition now formed we formulated a Defence plan that will protect our side of the Black sea from EE Incursion. This defense plan is split into three zones.

The CofC Divisions will defend Romania, Moldova, and Bulgaria.

The RPNW Division will defend Ukraine.

And my NCAF Division will Defend Greece in case the EE tries to take the Back Door route into Bulgaria.

The goal of this plan is to cover any angle of approach that the EE may take, while keeping the black sea open for civilian commerce from other nations can to go through.

So did you guys ever work out a chain of command for your coalition?

There is some Imperial naval activity - posting very shortly. The Bosporus still remains closed, both sides of the strait being held by Imperial troops, with their Turkish allies located nearby.

Just curious, here. Has ANYBODY looked at the geography of the area you have chosen. Do you see how FAR TO THE REAR the glorious New Canadian forces are? What do you suppose a couple Spetznaz companies could do at Marathon? Are you actually IN those countries you intend to "defend" or must you road march there? If you are already there, are you saying the EE just WATCHED you do it? How do your "host" countries feel about all this? If you are going to attempt an amphibious landibg, will it be at Gallipoli? I know. .. You all just beamed in from Enterprise.

Spearheading the effort from Athens? Who's commanding there, Son of Lloyd Fredendall? Some folks are being had. All confidence, no ability. So much for leading from the front. "You move, I'll cover! Ok, now. I'll cover, you move!". How long do you suppose it would take NC forces to get to you from Athens if you need support. It would take FOREVER, because they will be back in New Canada as quick as they broadcast those famous words, "You're ON YOUR OWN!

[MechCommander]

Look Panzer, in all honesty, all three of us in this coalition has not the slightest clue as to the EEs angle of attack. It could have anywhere any time.

[redleg]

Actually Mech the other two players have figured out what the EE is up to.

[MechCommander]

Yes I do know your going after Ukraine, but then again the EE may attack in any direction.

General order issued to all Coalition forces: began setting up heavy Defensive works at the Ukraine Border, tell your troops to stand their ground and hold the line.

[Hoth_902]

Negative Mech....I am not going to build a static defensive line.

3rd Army
Orders to 5th Corps, 16 Corps, and 30th Corps.
“Prepare as you see fit. I expect that if conflict on the continent does happen it will include maneuver. The terrain and the opposing forces will present opportunities, threats that will enhance strengths and Magnify weaknesses. Use your staff at corps to maintain your logistics.
. You have a duty to the men under your command. I expect you to do your best without ego. Lives depend upon the decisions you make, the orders you issue. Risk in every decision. Have faith in yourself and those that are in your command.

[MechCommander]

Prepare to setup Defensive works now, if we can hold the line and grind down the Imperial forces in a pitch battle we should be able to drive them off.

[chrisswim]

Is that order for the Nigerian divisions, 1st Nigerian Div. and 2nd Nigerian Div?
They expecting to disembark tomorrow. Where you you like them to land then set up?
Why? What are the benefits?

[panzergator]

I smell a Charlie Foxtrot.

[chrisswim]

C.F.
Yep, the PMs are a C.F.

[Hoth_902]

C.F. indeed. There will be no defensive works for 30th Corps. RPNW forces will not turn back military doctrine to the first world war.
